Wow, that's bad. I couldn't see what you were talking about before. I'd raise hell tomorrow, Dave. I guess there isn't an interference fit of the rotor to the hub?

FYI, I had to machine my Airkewld hubs. The outer snout for the grease cap was too large, and I didn't want to ruin the face of the hub prying the cap off. I machine it down so the cap just slid on, and secure it with a bead of silicone.

And then on the inside, the seal opening was too small, so I machined that to the right size and made sure it was a rough finish so the seal would grab.

So the moral is, even when you pay good money for what you think is a superior product, it may not be. And then I go back to the usual statement: nothing bolts right on these cars. Almost ever.
