My set of lowers came with 4 drill bits last year - they were hard and sharp - sharpened at a very steep angle. I used my cordless drill, with the springs still on the truck in my driveway. Also used a couple blocks of wood - fulcrum and lever - to add more push to the drill. Cut through the leafs very well, though I did chip 3 of the bits on the final break-through. 2017 F-350.
Thanks, Rustofer - in my newbie ignorance I had the shop order the Stable Loads and paid them with my deposit, so I’m relying on them when they say there was “a” drill bit on the invoice but not in the package.
As the shop already has a large down payment I seem to be stuck with them, unless I get a lawyer involved, which could well end up even more messy and expensive. The shop itself is old and well established, with a good reputation, and dealing with them has been pleasant. I suspect they’re basically honorable and care about their reputation but had no idea what they were getting into once they saw the springs had no holes. They say they’re looking for a solution and will call me tomorrow - I’ll update once they do.
Thanks again
