Disc not running true :( help please

[chrisbond69]

Well ive given up on the car today ive got a major problem, well to me it seems major. I've gone to fit my discs and brembo calipers but theres a problem, ive torqued down the hub to caliper bracket put the disc on then the caliper and the looking closely theres a couple of thou raise and drop on the discs during rotation this is not making me feel to good about fitting them to the car can anyone suggest anything?

failing that can someone give me prices and numbers for new hubs and hub carriers from the likes of ecp/gsf/tps i want to fit this setup asap but its just another problem in the long line of problems im having recently thats actually getting me to thinking is finishing the car really worth it.

Many thanks in advance

is it like this on both sides? have you taken it all off again to check everything??

 

[mr_D]

oh and is the stuff all new? ie disck pads. calipers?

 

[chrisbond69]

Discs/pads/calipers/wheel bearings all new

there on the side in the garage tried the discs on both hubs and they both do it i dont know what to do im at my whits end, i dont know if i should buy new hubs etc to make sure there ok before checking the discs

 

[mr_D]

both sides do the same thing. even when you swap the discs over as well???

theres smaller movement on one side but on the other its quite bad even when i tighten down some shortened nuts there still movement ive been out in the garage most of the day trying to work it out but to no avail. i cant tell if its the hub or discs, i was contemplating trying to set up a dti but i dont know anyone local with one

It would be because the driveshafts are not in the hubs and tightened down. That will give the movement in the bearing.

you 100% sure on that alex cos its doing my head in proper grump on today

were your old disks ok? might help rule out the hubs being the problem.

If its the new disks, get them skimmed.

When i had the shafts off my car earlier this year, i fitted new discs and with the wheels on they didnt run true. With the shafts in there is no play in the hub and no disc rub. Witht the shafts off there will be wobble. Now go and cheer up
