Message	to get the caliper centered. The front caliper bracket bolt heads did slightly hit the rotor attach bolt heads at initial install. All of the washers that came with the kit were like .060" thick. I rounded up some thinner washers for a finer adjustment. Also, when you install brand new pads with brand new rotors, it is such a tight fit into the caliper, you have no room to be off center. I actually milled off about 1/16" from each of the brake pads to gain some clearance.
