[QUOTE="Tob, post: 15084884, member: 83412"] My apologies as I've been tied up with other projects as well as a bit busy with family. Just as the sun was setting tonight I opened up a few boxes and pulled out an OEM Ford S197 spindle, a low mileage S197 hub and nut (from my own GT500), and the SHW GT350 rotor. [ATTACH=full]664175[/ATTACH] Boom. [ATTACH=full]664176[/ATTACH] I sucked the rotor in tight to the hub with some lug nuts and took a closer look. [ATTACH=full]664177[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]664178[/ATTACH] Hub register is a perfect fit as it should have been as is the bolt circle (5 x 4.5). Note the steering arm portion of the spindle in the next photo as that is where clearance has been reduced over typical S197 rotor. I actually envisioned it as being a hair worse than it is. [ATTACH=full]664179[/ATTACH] Clearance is about 7/16". [ATTACH=full]664180[/ATTACH] The ears for the caliper are closer to the rotor face as well. [ATTACH=full]664181[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]664182[/ATTACH] I saw no less than 1/2" there. [/QUOTE]
