Default ?'s About Rear Spindle Install...

Hey has anyone installed spindles on their swingarm? I had the slip in spindles but lost one when I forgot to remove it before riding. I think I'd like the permanent spindles that I have to drill and tap. I already have the tools but just didn't know if it was possible to do so with the F4's swingarms.

Thats why I did not get the slip in's. I just got the paddle lift attachments for my stand. It is not quite as solid but definitely good enough.

I think I'm going to try and tap the swing arm so I can put the screw in spools in it for stability reasons...does anyone know if the swingarm is sold or hollow??

its hollow but webbing running through it. So its BOTH solid and hollow depending on where you drill!! VE
