Conversation Between andym and rjtlawncare

hey andym, i need help with understanding how to put back on the hub on my 95 f250 hd 4x4. Does the brake shield have to be on in order for there to be clearance for the caliper bracket to go on. As of right now the shield is off and the bracket when lined up with the holes it wedges with the rotor, thus the rotor will not rotate. Question did I put the hub on to far up the alxe shaft or do you have to have the shield on which gives it an extra quarter inch it needs. How much clearance does the caliper bracket need from the rotor when place on the knuckle. some one mentioned that the rotor my be the wrong one(it from autozone Durlast Gold part number 5445). any help would be great Thanks man
