Yours appear to be for a hub that is threaded, therefore not suitable for a spinner adaptor application. But I'm sure when someone close too you sends you a sample you will come up with a superior solution as you usually do.

Yes, the pins we made actually thread into the brake rotor on the back of the hub (original style set up). The original Cobra hub has a 0.500" recess in the hub to accept the pin. The pin goes through the hub and then threads into the rotor. The pin then has a lock nut on the back side of the rotor to keep everything together.

Thanks for the vote of confidence on this new application.
