I'm half way through it. Got one side done.

I took my hubs to my local garage and borrowed their lathe to get the back of the hubs nice a flat. The rear hubs have a bit of a slope on the back meaning the bolts would come through slightly wonky. However, this is me mostly being a perfectionist.
1/2" drill bit to drill out the threads. Then pressed them in.
