no leave the races in the hub as this is what centers the hub
centrically...then wash out the assembly to remove any filings...no damage
should occur to the races if done correctly.

&gt; My pads were pulsing pretty bad at the last race so I had the rotors t=

&gt;<br>
&gt; Upon reinstall today I found that I had 0.010&quot; of runout on the p=

&gt; uncle jack hub wheel flange and was surprised to find 0.003&quot; of r=
unout in<br>
&gt; the hub.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; On the driver&#39;s side, rotor was 0.003 and hub wheel flange was 0.0=

&gt;<br>
