I only started running into this problem when I upgraded the brakes to a two piece rotor. My theory is not enough cooling and the heat is being transferred through the AL hat to the bearings and fucking shit up in a hurry.

Yeah, it's a combination of the heat transfer from the aluminum, and the warpage from the heat cycling...

Where might one find these steel hubs you speak of

I just remembered it's from KSP Engineering.
If you got access to YJA, they sell them there.
About US$400 right now...

I would think you would have access to resources to get someone with CNC to do them in the states?
