I'd rather learn why/how something works then just have it done for me, as frustrating as it can be...now I know. Art Morrison Ent.(Kevin) said the race is not a clearance fit. Slide the races in and once the axles slide in everything is good to go.
I appreciate the feedback and education on what to look for and how it works. I also appreciate all the parts I was given Greg, the pile is getting smaller as they get installed.
:thumbsup:



I'm the same way... somehow you retain the details better if you did the job yourself...

Now, what were we talking about??? Oh yeah.... your rear end. :disgusted:

If I had more Mustang parts - they'd all be yours for the taking. The reason for that is because I know you'll use what you can and help someone else with what you can't. It's the way life should be.

Carry on.

The first picture you posted. Does the brake mounting bracket act as a retainer or are you missing the axle retainer plate? Greg, do you remember?
The wider step of the seal should be flush to the housing end.

Hey Vince, just to clarify...the wider part of the seal is a bit proud of the flange. The brake bracket/retainer plate is machined on the back side, with the plate sitting flush on the housing the seal sticks out about 2/16" or 4/32".....

It's together other then the rotors and calipers and I'm pretty sure I'm done messing with it. Thanks to you all and AME I'm confident it's correct, if it's not...I may just take up archery.

1/8" sounds about right. :tv_happy:

Did you get it fixed? Doesn't it need a spacer to fill the space that used to be taken up by the original brake backing plate/ bracket?

DBasher 07-20-2015 06:04 PM

I think I'm good to go. The new bracket holds everything in place and I've got no slop or binding....I'll have the wife "test" it out for me!
