<DIV>I spent some time about 13 years ago getting a fair amount of input from
the list on the rotor thickness. If I recall correctly most said there was
no Rootes published minimum. Someone did send me information stating that
.375 was the minimum (below). </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Times New Roman"></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Times New Roman"><EM>“The new rotors are .500 inch and the
minimum is .375 inch. The data came from a factory service bulletin.
Hope this helps.” Dan</EM></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><EM><FONT face="Times New Roman"></FONT></EM> </DIV>
<DIV>.375 seems an awfully large amount out of a stated .500 rotor. If it
matters I had my rotors turned and of the four I had done they were in the
.435-.460 range. I had a hard time finding someone to turn the rotors being they
had no actual number in their database (or on the rotor) to work from. I
eventually found a Triumph guy at Pep Boys who was willing to turn them as long
as I stated on the invoice that the .375 was provided by me. Initially I was
only going to get one set turned, but when I finally found someone to turn them
I dashed home and got the other set too - not wanting to miss the
opportunity.</DIV>

could be a different story. It is very possible the mould cavity for

<P>The disc thickness will be weak, the size if disc is odd. Should be
same diameter on series 3-v alpine and tiger.<o:p></o:p></P>
<P>As for hubs same on all alpines on front.... Maybe running wrong grease

All:<BR><BR>The other day, a friend who owns a Tiger II found that one of his
