I put new rotors on the rear, and have rebuilt calipers (by Goldline in Seattle). Brake disc rubs on the caliper by a little. I am going to put in some 12mm (diameter) shim washers between the calipers and wheel carrier. I suspect sitting for 40 years may have forced the trailing arm to bend a little. The washers are different thicknesses from like 0.1mm to 0.5mm
Anyone ever seen this caliper misalignment before? |
