Do the bolts which hold the flange plate to the rotor itself have the normal clockwise thread pattern? Changing rotors to newbies and the bolts r being un co-operative? :D

Tried on one side and it just chewed the head, and it was a good philips head piece, the metal just gave way, so will ahve to drill that one, hopefully the others come out better!

When you go to get replacements from a bolt supplier, if you take out the rear drum screws, they are the same thread and countersunk head shape, just a little shorter.

You could even get a the longer ones for the spacer drums and cut them down.
