Good news .. bad news….
here is the good news:
the discs arrived!!!!
bad news… the picture shows and I did call the company as well to verify it is only the disk - not the whole hub disk assembly!
….return to sender,
I was looking at it and thought maybe Machine the center out to have the right bore size 81.9mm and then Machine the thickness of the flange down to have the 9.2mm flange thickness… But the additional 1.5 mm are on the wrong side not centering the disk in the caliper so that’s not gonna work either. It would be just a cluster f@$&..
I think I’m gonna put the mustang to rest!
I don’t think Mustang is the solution…
(some may say “he gave up too early”, but I was reading a lot about that subject, and there were many many failures, and only not even a handful of success stories) . Just a few were successful with major effort and help from the manufacture of the disks… Not easily repeatable!
I’m going to order the disks from PPC... 350 dollars apiece 700 dollars for the axle … I want to see what I get ! one thing I really would like to see is the inside diameter if it has the proper fit going over the hub and center the disk! I think there’s a lot to ask from the studs, but not centering the disc permanently on the hub with the protruding cast for the bearings… The disc is not gonna just rotate, but when you apply the brakes, it tries to pull away from the center as well. Maybe I’m overthinking… Again…
Maybe I’m overthinking… Again…
I’m gonna see if I can come up with something better and more sensible but to get the Banana running Porsche discs it is!
I am bummed
