[QUOTE="vibrac, post: 130295, member: 60"] One thing you need to be very careful with is the 5 or 10 holes in the carrier to fit to the hub they need to be a real good fit with no slop. The carrier we used for the big twin Egli racer was bought in and after two seasons there were a network of fine cracks from the bolt holes and the bolts continually worked loose, the alloy does not have the resistance of the cast iron brake plate. I made my own carrier for our new twin racer and reamed and locktighted the bolts into position make sure the plain shanks are precisely the correct length. On a twin there is a lot of power jerking through there. [/QUOTE]
