I've got an old note from Don Elliott saying it worked for him; perhaps he
will chime in here with more direct (and updated) information.  

But with new rotors only $40 from TRF, I'd probably replace them.  As I
recall the discussion, it was felt that the knurled shaft was not hardened
as the original shaft was, which might make it prone to break at the slot
for the drive tang.
