If you can make up some shims then that will get you out of trouble. The first one I did with metric bearings, I had to get a new hollow axle made to get the job sorted out. I'm not sure if the VSM kits come with new bearings, and I guess the problem arises that when carrying this mod out, one naturally assumes that the original bearings will work, but I have found this is not the case. To add to the problem, the old bearings can be very difficult to remove from the hub unless you run a weld inside the race and then the outer bearing race will normally drop out. Perhaps not all the hubs are the same, but I have found on some, it is near impossible to get a punch/drift behind the race to knock it out. As great as these brakes are, they can cause grief to install. Keep us posted on your progress, it will be worth it in the end. Cheers.............Greg.
