When comparing the new and the old rotor, everything is the same, except the inner diameter on the center hole, which is around 0.5-1mm smaller on the new rotor. I've tried to refit the wheel, and force the rotor into place, without any luck. The rotor is 2-3mm from being where it should be.
Do i have the wrong rotor, or do i have to either expand the hole on the rotor, or decrease the diameter where its mounted? The car is a 97` 6GC T20 with rear disk brakes. The disks where bought for this exact model. EDIT: Look at the bottom for the new problem.. This post has been edited by skogs: Oct 3, 2011 - 10:01 AM |

I disassembled the rotor again, and found that the brand new e-brake shoes where actually noticeable worn. So that's the same problem i had earlier, before changing anything.
e-brake cable, shoes and rotor are all brand new. Everything is loosened as much as possible and still the e-brake is slightly engaged at all times.. WHY?!?! |
