Hurricane 1600 Posted June 18, 2007 Author Share Posted June 18, 2007 And why do the pins rub on the brake disks ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wingnut Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 1, plate needed not be fitted.2, possible rust build up on brake disc edge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deleted User Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 the bit you left off is just a dust shield, your disc does look quite a bit rusted, are they rubbing much? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhodes Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 I would guess that your discs have been replaced at some stage and are a fraction too large. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hurricane 1600 Posted June 18, 2007 Author Share Posted June 18, 2007 If I bolt the brake callipers up - you can nolonger trun the disc - how should I get around this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deleted User Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 Is it that the pads are holding the disc, or is it definately the calipers?Is the suspension assembled correctly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hurricane 1600 Posted June 18, 2007 Author Share Posted June 18, 2007 It's the pins hitting the disc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisspe Posted June 19, 2007 Share Posted June 19, 2007 might just be the rust, had a similar problem on my nissan, two seconds on a lathe solved it, best check everything is screwed on properly first , the mounting for the calipers havnt gone oval or anything like that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
