Re: grinding calipers
No...it`s no big deal,really.Drinktomany is talking about a 1-ton front axle that is bigger yet.And,it did work,I guess.I`m telling you,I did it and drove the truck for years like that.The truck was a`71 K/20,the wheels were 10x15 steel wagon wheels,and the tires were 37/14.50x15s.It takes alot to stop a tire like that,and it was no problem.It took longer to bolt the tires on than grind the calipers.Basically,it`s just the ridge from the casting that needs ground.
