1969 Dart Street/Strip (Re)Build
I don't know that these can be turned with them being drilled and slotted. It would be news to me if it could be done. This is the second set of disks and it's the same issue. So right now I have a spare set of disks that I believe are still good. The hub itself is machined from a billet piece so you'd think that would be cut straight with it being CNC milled. The piece that I think is in question is the adapter plate. I measured excessive runout on that which Wilwood didn't listen to me about. "It's normally the disks that are the problem so we sent you new disks" was their answer. They didn't try to change anything at all. They measured runout and proved I was right that the disks measured out of spec. That took 5 weeks to accomplish when it's a 3 minute job for a novice like myself in my own garage with basic tools. But NEVER did they actually try to find the actual root of the issue. They held the brakes hostage for 5 weeks for a 3 minute check, didn't fix anything, and threw new disks back at me without even changing them on my existing hub assy ASSUMING that would fix my problem. And that's even after I specifically said that they need to check not only the disks, but the adapter plate and the hub because I was seeing an issue there. You'd think that they would want to make sure everything ran true before they spent the money to mail all this back to me. My buddy was wanting to get some Wilwoods and he's taking a step back and re-thinking his purchase on that. In his words, "Parts can be fixed, but you can't fix bad customer service". And I totally agree. I feel like they've done a poor job here in helping me get back on track. There are other options out there and next time around, I don't think I'll be looking at Wilwood. I've missed so many fun events and good weather lately it urks the **** out of me. Power Tour was going to be the big one this year and that's gone out the window. The Roadkill event at the end of the Power Tour in Kansas City was a possibility, but that's not going to be possible if the brakes are still hosed up either.
