11.65” rear brake q’s

[PaulRSchmidt]

A couple questions:

1) The caliper mounting bolts don’t seem to have either lock washers nor thread lock on them, is that of concern?

2) Is the cast-in nub on the caliper the centering indicator, and should match the rotor vent? In my case, it looks like I’ll have to space the caliper mount bracket inboard a bit:

1- I'd put a lock or flat washer on the bolts.
2- I think you will be fine. As the pads wear the caliper will move inward (to the left in your pic) so if it is clearing now you will be fine.

Blue Locktite if you have any doubts of them coming loose.
