Well, I just got my shipment of parts in from Pelican, which included brand new 4-lug Zimmerman bremsheiben (brake rotors) I bought these because the old rotors were redrilled 4-lugs, and I didn't want to fork up the money for 914-6 parts.

Does anyone know of a shop that will redrill these somewhere close to Vista, CA? My regular machine shop doesn't have have the setups to do it and the closest one that I don't like, can't do it either.

Where can I get these re-drilled?
(The closer the better...)

Thanks, Ethan

UPS goes every where, every day.

Search for Eric Shea, PMB Performance.
He handles disk drilling all the time, although I don't know if he'll do a late-model without the 5 bosses cast into the rotor from the factory (like the early stuff did.) Contact him and ask. Probably won't cost any more done complete and delivered than if you'd just bought the 901 parts originally.

Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, Ruch? The "5 bosses" are cast into the rear hubs, NOT the rotors. The Cap'n
