I tried to buy another backplate, but unlike Tru Turn this manufacturer won't sell a backplate separate from the spinner. Original plan was to get another matching backplate and drill it to the 150 pattern and size.
Could buy a whole new spinner but at $170 bucks it gets expensive.

Hi Bill, I have used the back plates like that before, but I bushed the holes with brass tubing. Perhaps just bushing a couple would be enough because it's compression that holds in position anyway.
I'm sure there's others here that have done the same.
