No Mike, it's only this component called a 'dust seal' and is number 9 in the picture above that is missing.
I called Tony in Perth and his car is exactly the same as mine, and is missing the dust seal part number 9.
The axle spacer is there, no worries.
Well, I messed that up!! My car did not have that part 9 either. In that case there can only be a few things causing the problem:
1. The step on the axel where the cupped washer/spacer fits is not the same as the stock axel. I can’t tell from your picture, but note on my axel images that there is a fairly thick space/step between the rotor mating surface and the area that the cupped washer contacts. The rotor hub should be the same thickness, right.
2. The bearing hub is not the same width at stock. Note that the hub/inner race sticks out some in my images.
3. The wheel stud flange is thinker than stock but I think I recall that you reused your studs.
After following your thread all these months I’m feeling very fortunate that the projects on my car have gone so well.
