Okay so I decided to upgrade my brakes to disc. I ordered what I needed from Brothers. They sent the kit which looked ok. I followed the video and stumbled a little but all ok. When I tried to assemble the caliper with brake pads installed and they won’t fit the disc. I questioned my assembly of the hub etc. I could find nothing I did wrong. I then measured the width of the unassembled disc 31.5 mm (the other wheel) and space between the caliper pads-33.5 mm obviously the spacing is too narrow to fit the disc. Any ideas to make this right? Thanks.
Well, 31.5 mm disc thickness is less than 33.5 mm space.....that there is a clearance fit Clarence. In the United States of America we use inches to measure things like that. That there is a clearance of .03937 per side. Perfect.
Robert: Can you re-do that question and in inches? Glad to help.
If you have transposed the numbers, my first reaction is the same as Phil's. Squeeze it more. You need to be careful not to squirt out of the reservoir while squeezing. Let us know.
Did you buy your own caliper and pads or did it all come with the kit????????????
