Leo, Is it possible to adapt a center bolt to hold the spinner on?
Edwin
Edwin, No. Not with a spun aluminum nose cone. Their is no structural strength to the front cone. Plus the edge detail locking the perimeter to the back plate is external not internal like a Tru-Turn. A Tru-Turn tightens and wedges at the back as it spins. This Y/A spinner expands and loosens. Totally different design concepts. This is not a Tru-Turn. Stick with the design and screw the back perimeter down. I use eight (8) 6-32 button head hex screws. They are not conspicuous and work great. Leo
