Where would the spacers go? The caliper doesn't look like it can move out any further, and the bracket is limited by the axle flange.
Thanks,

01-08-2007 #2Looking at the photo, looks like the rotor is not slid up onto the axle far enough. Is the inside of the rotor contacting the O.D. of the axle before it's seating against the axle flange? Some axles need to have the O.D.s turned down in order for the rotors to fit correctly.

There mat be a difference that Moser made for the actual flange distance. I want to think years ago when the Pontiac guys at HO Racing had a kit for A bodies they use a spacer between the bracket and the flange on the tubes.

Thanks for the replies, the rotors are snugged up to the face of the axle flange, but I will double check that. I told Moser that I was using T/A disc brakes on them when I ordered the axles.
Also I checked the distance from the face of the axle flange to the face of the axle flange (out to out width) and it is the same as another rear I have in my shed.
I'll try mounting the brackets on the outside of the axle flange, but I think it will hit the rotor.
Does anyone make offset brackets?
Thanks again
