Hello, I have a set of brp tunbuckles for my mini t. They work great, but as you know require some modification to be used on stock parts. Anyway all was well untill i broke my rear hub on the mini t.. So I'm thinking I can replace them with new stock hubs, or upgrade to alloy.. I much rather upgrade to alloy rear hubs. The problem is the larger ball ends used with the brp turnbuckles. I just dont know how I can install the larger ball ends into the new alloy part..... Any segestions would be greatly apriciated... thnak you _Duane

You have to tap out the alloy hubs with a 4-40 tap. Go with the alloy no more broken hubs :) But as You make one part stronger the next weakest link will break.

I finnaly found a 4-40 tap. I went to four local places, all of them were out. It was crazzy they had every size under the sun, except the one I needed.
Somehow the clouds cleared, and osh recived a few yesterday with their order. I bought the tap, and wreanch. It works great, couldn't belive how easy it was..... Thanks guys.. _Duane
