Well I have seen and heard of a few people doing this, JKS' site says to mill the knuckle a little bit, to center the caliper on the rotor
From JKS' site:
Mill work: The knuckles, at the caliper mounting surface, must have machine work done to remove .130 (+/-.010) material. Must be machined flat. Please verify this on your setup prior to machining. The idea is to remove enough material to center the caliper on the rotor.
The main problem I have is that with the .25" spacer the rotor is touching the knuckle not allowing anything to spin, to fix this and get the rotor centered in the caliper I need a .5" spacer. My main problem with this is that the spindle is no longer a tight fit in the knuckle like it should be, my question is, has anyone milled a spacer that is .5" thick and goes back into the making the spindle and the knuckle a tight fit again? thanx, Jamie
