while re-assembling my front end i consulted the sacred haynes manual as to how to mount the hubs on the spindle page 100, fig 7.2 , # 16 ..verse 9. book of john.
yea tho i mount the the guard plate as thy sayeth, thy hub shall not spin, nor shall thy clamping nut have the clearence to clampeth. could this most sacred of all books ...BE WRONG? damn picture don't even look like mine. seems to work better if i turn it over. P.S. Eric don't send me one for christmas, this one screws me up just fine (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif) |

Assembly drawing is correct. Sure you have the right rotors for the spindle. From the images of your of your ball joints, you have early struts and should have non-hubcentic rotors. Shoot an image of the front of your rotors.
AND, did you get the wheel bearing seated completely or for that matter assembled correctly? While you don't need guard plate, it keeps shit off the rotor to a degree. |

While you don't need guard plate, it keeps shit off the rotor to a degree. i flipped the guard plate over and it spins fine. i guess it's becuse mine is a 914 SE (satanic edition) while we're here, the book (ugh) says to torque down the locking nut, i assume that means the allen nut. |
