wrong rear hub?

My late model 944T trailing arms were cobbled together from several sources. I bought the "trailing arms" on-line and when they arrived all they really consisted of was the bare trailing arm. Soooo, I took them to a local wrecking yard/ Porsche shop and they assembled the set. Now the problem is when I put the rear rotor on the hub it does not even begin to cover the parking brake pads. So I guess my question is wrong hubs or wrong rotors?

Thanks,
Randy

Well...it is either or!

Those hubs are from the late style al arms. You need to get disks for those. Your track increase will be a lot bigger with those.
YOu might have early style disks and this is why they do not cover the e-brake shoes.

I would try to source some early style hubs. They sit flat on the al trailing arm and do not come out on a cone like this one in the pic.

Wow the answer took several minutes...

I will take them off and head out to find the flat hubs.

Thanks again,

Randy
