Help: front lower control arms rubbing on brake disc! Fixed
Thu, 11 November 2004 01:09
I've fitted up my new DBA discs & now I've discovered under certain vehicle cornering loads, the part of the ball joint fixed to the lower control arm is rubbing against the brake disc.
sorry bout the large size
you can see the groove in the middle of the disc:
It is not helped by the car being lowered, which swings the lower arm out a bit at the bottom.
The lower ball joint bolts onto the end of the arm.
Could this be bent slightly to pivot the ball joint away from the disc?
