Powdercoated the wheels and installed new tires. I'm trying to reinstall the front and it just won't line up right to reinstall the brakes. No matter how I doe it and which side I put the spacers on it's too far to the right!?

Any expertise or tricks of the trade on this?

 

There should be a larger one and a smaller one.
The larger spacer goes on the left side (left while sitting on the bike).

That's how I have them and for some reason the wheel is sitting too far to the right and the right brake caliper won't fit in properly?

 

How much off is it?

 

Maybe try flipping the wheel?

 

If you're only off a little it's possible the pads closed in and won't let the caliper slide over the disc. Try gently spreading the pads open to get more space between them until you can slip it on over the disc (you may have to pull off the master cyl cap). Once the caliper is back on, squeeze the brake lever a couple of times to reseat the pads. Hope you get it worked out.

Also the bearings may not have been pressed in properly

 

Thanks for the ideas. I'l try 'em and see what I can do. Appreciate it!

 

Care full if you pull off the master cylinder cap and sqeeze anything. Brake fluid will destroy nice surfaces fast!
