Baer Brake Install

[cope]

I was just wondering if anyone has had any problems installing the Baer Track Brake Upgrade? I have a '93 GSX with ABS and tried to install this upgrade this past weekend. Everything went smoothly until I backed the car out of the garage and noticed that the caliper was grinding up against the rotor before the pads. I took off the rotor and noticed 2 bolts on the hub along with the 5 lug nuts. It looks as though these 2 bolts are keeping the rotor from sitting flush against the hub. What are those 2 bolts holding? Also I noticed the tires sticking out from the the wheel well. Thanks in advance for any help.

Well, I had a similar problem with my 97 GS-T Spyder. I don't know that this is your problem, but I had the same symptoms.

What happened was that they had sent me the wrong hardware kit and the wrong installation instructions. When everything was installed the rotor ground against the caliper. I contacted them and they sent me different instructions, but still hadn't figured out I had the wrong hardware. I tried putting things together as per the new instructions and this stripped out some of the mounting bolts. Finally, they figured out what was going on and sent me all new mounting hardware, including a new mounting bracket and a third set of instructions.

Baer was great through all of this, but obviously they had made some mistakes. The brakes, when properly installed, turned out awesome.
