brakes

[Brendan Rudack <rudack@ucsub.Colorado.EDU>]

 I just test fitted the dual piston Girling 60 caliper on my '88 90Q.
I am using the 10.9inch rotors from a '91 90Q 20v.  The offset is about 
.25 inches different than the stock rotors mainly because of their 
increased thickness.  They will only fit if I remove the splash shields 
and put a ~1/8 inch spacer between the caliper and the strut were it 
bolts on.  Is it okay to use spacers?  I need to put these things on over 
the weekend because the pads on my brakes are seriousily paper thin!  I 
know, it's not very safe but I was putting it off until I got through 
with school.  TYIA
