I have the Wilwood 140-7139 rear brake kit for my 9" Ford with Moser Axles. The axles have bolt in studs and the heads are hitting the Wilwood parking brake assembly. I assume the kit was designed for axles with press in studs. What has anyone done to correct this? I would hate to have to grind down the heads of the studs.

Yeah. left a message. Was hoping someone else had an easy solution. Right now it looks as though I'll have to grind them down or remove the studs and drill the axles for a press in stud.

Call Moser and see if they have different studs for that application.

I ended up cutting the heads down. Fits fine now.
