Bent strut rod is very common. Can't count how many I've tossed over the years.
You said disc brake swap. What brakes are on it? Fixed caliper or floating?
Inspectors, engineers and non-paying customers are some of reasons I got out of it. That and my body was just getting to jacked up.
Inspectors who thought they were god and you were in god's country
Engineers who thought since they could put it on paper that it could be installed that way...
The NEC is chapter 70 of the National Fire Protection Association which has over 300 chapters. The NEC is a minimum requirement. The authority having jurisdiction

My family was the 2nd largest EC in the state for a few decades and mainly did industrial and heavy...

The only time I use oil is on the rusty welds. I do drill really slow. Under 300 rpm.
Like anything you just have to find what works for you. I found mine.
It is about the money with me. I drill over 20000 welds a year, every year. The Rotabroach cost 3 times as much as the hole saw style but they last 10 times longer. I used the hole saw type for a couples years because they cost less. I finally tried the Rotabroach and my frist thought was " what...
