Front disc brake dust shields?

bdiamond · Jun 8, 2009

I tried searching but didn't find out too much... I am replacing my hub unit bearings and have the brake dust shields off. I wasn't planning on putting them back on. Does anyone have any advice for or against the idea?If I ditch the shields should I use some sort of spacer or something to keep everything in line?

i just took mine off and threw them away. seemed like they could catch rocks and drag them against the rotors. i very well may be wrong but didnt see much purpose to them
