Yes, and even when you verify something 3 different ways, it can still turn out to be wrong.
Been a while since I've run a disc brake but whatever disc material I end up with, sensibly I should use compatible pads. What is good is the opportunity to talk back and forth. Sometimes one comment can make a major difference.
The lower cup doesn't have any counterbore to fit dust shield.nifty wrote: ↑Thu Oct 07, 2021 10:10 pm Re your 2.115” OD for your dust shield:
Fairly darn close, 0.015” bigger OD than genuine 48365-48A lower shield, details of which I posted some pages back. Provided your slightly oversize lower shield is round and burr free it should still fit within the approx 2.130” ID counterbore above cup in genuine 60 up frame cup. Rolled edge of lower shield is supposed to form a labyrinth type device in lower frame cup. Mock up lower shield, bearing cone & frame cup with bearing cup installed, ensure sharp edge of shield doesn’t scrape against frame cup. And put you glasses on when you do it.
Made a replacement for top dust shield.
Re glasses. I use #1.5 for everything except for close-up inspection where I need #3. Pity I can't use 3's for everything but then things more than 2ft away are a blur. Bifocals could solve it I guess...
Probably repop along with the front end.
Wasn't thinking of it specifically, but merely widening the net of prospective candidate rotors and adding to the knowledge of what works and what don't. This could be handy if the upcoming swapmeet goes ahead in which case I'd have my list of part numbers, a micrometer, a straight edge and a vernier/ruler. Caveat Emptor as much of the stuff that makes it to a swap really needs to find a scrap bin.
Thanks!
