Well I got my new wheels, tires, and rotors installed and guess what, the holes in the rotors did not completely line up with the road lock. :( They were not off by much but enough for it not to work.

Luckily I have access to a machine shop and they let me borrow some reamers to open the holes up.I only opened up 6 holes and the road lock now works fine.

I was a bit concerned about how tough it might be opening up the holes in such hard material but the reamers along with some lubricant cut through with no problems ;D   The holes in the rotors were .343 and I wound up opening them up to .406.

All in all it wasn't too much of a pain in the a$$ but like what 2lane said it was just a nuisance. So let the buyer beware.

Sounds like exactly the same problem and response HDG.  Used six holes from same circuit in the rotor.  I'm pretty sure I didn't gain more than .020 on any of them.  Certainly not a big deal.  Just would've been nicer if didn't have to mess with it.  Pretty slick little system no that it's working though  :2vrolijk_21: .
