Wilwood 13" kit and grinding for fit

The issue is "nesting" the nubs or mounting bosses of the caliper between the nubs of the steering spindle. While taking a bit off the caliper is ok, I prefer it be removed more from the iron spindle where there is more meat to be lost without any potential loss of critical material. In either case it really is a very small amount and will take less time than you think. Fitting the mount bracket to the spindle and then trying to fit the caliper to it (no rotor yet) you can easily see why and where. The other side of the car becomes a snap.
All of that probably could have been avoided if I'd opted to do a custom 13.2" or so rotor but for inventory purposes it's the same 13.0 as used on many other kits.
Besides, you needed an excuse to buy that $40 Makita didn't you? LOL!
Oops, looks like they're a bit more money today. $54
