    enough of a lip on the LCA that you could grind a smidge to get the clearance?

    I doubt it, i certainly didnt. I remember it was close, but not that bad. The dust shield definately had to go though.

    Interesting, mine sat 3-4mm higher with that lip actually inside the hat. could it be because you havnt bolted up the steering arm? Looking back at my pictures i only fitted the hubs after i had bolted the strut up.

    Im guessing this is into a spoontah? Can you use an alternate LCA? Such as xt130?Or do they have the same problem?

    LCA's for TA22, RA23/28, and RT132/XT130, are exactly the same length, the end shape "may" be different.

    yup in a spoonter. if i have to change LCA id rather just run RCAs.

    takai- i tried bolting the strut on 1st and then the hub/disk, still no love. i even persuaded the lip of the LCA back a bit but its still very close and touches when i turn?
    edit: i mean touches when i turn the steering wheel, not when i turn the disk.

    just put my setup back together (its on the shelf in the garage)

    all i can think off is the ball joint isnt bolted to the knuckle properly (looks to be at a weird angle?) ???

    or its to do with the steering knuckle offset.

    Looking at mine i cant see anyway to make the LCA contact the disc sitting there???
