I am wanting to install disc brakes on my bucket. I am currently running radir 12 spoke spindle mount wheels w/o brakes. My question is related to clearance required for the rotor. I am worried that the bolt/nut from the steering rod wishbone piece on the left side will invade the clearance needed for the rotor. To try to describe it… there is a plate on the spindle with four holes in it that the caliper will mount to. On the driver's side of the car, there is a wishbone shaped piece with threaded ends. the threaded ends from this wishbone piece go into the top two holes of the four hole plate. The nuts slightly invade the area around the edge of the wheel hub. As I am a newbee, I am unable to attach a photo showing the issue so hopefully I am making myself clear . Is a spacer needed to move the wheel away from from the frame? Anyone have any experience with this. thanks for any advice.
