Its dual-drilled design accommodates both 3/8-inch and 10mm bolts, ensuring versatile installation options.

      Installation. Installation requires moderate mechanical skill and precision. The dual-drilled configuration facilitates mounting compatibility, but professional installation is recommended to ensure proper gear mesh and carrier fitment, and drilling beyond the pre-set holes is not necessary.
