4x4brat Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 Thank You Brian....(subarujunkie) for bringing me out the cone washer!! after replacing with all new front end parts i tighten the axle and its causes the rotor to rub the brake pad hanger any ideas? Thanks for your help!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4x4_Welder Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 Wrong bearing, or no/wrong spacer between the bearings? How hard of a rub is it, is it just touching or is it digging in deep? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aba4430 Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 Just a basic question, but are you sure it is not the slight, but normal brake pad drag? What I mean is that the brake rotor does not rotate freely, but touches the pads slightly. Welder may be spot on with the spacer point as well.

Greenley Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 It could have something to do with Brian . After we did the rear discs on my hatch, it was dragging pretty gnar. Was the pads. A hundred miles or so it went away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4x4brat Posted May 20, 2009 Author Share Posted May 20, 2009 well after looking at my other brat i notice that the new rotors are 1/8" thicker....grrrrr:mad: this is causing the rotor to hit the brake pad hanger and stops the rotor from spinning anyone have this issue or seen this problem with the older gens?

4x4_Welder Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 Sounds like you got EA81 rotors- What was the part number on those? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
