Help with Baer 14" rear install
Bought a set of baer EradiSpeed 14" rear and c6 z51 fronts for my car but didn't get any instructions. Do the bolts that hold the rear spacer bracket to the spindle go on dry? I am assuming they do since they have a nylon lined nut. I'm used to using loctite on everything so I just want to 100%. I actually had a caliper come off years ago and lock up the wheel on the highway, that will make you check and double check afterwards!!
Now I just need go get all my wheels rebalanced since the stick on weights just rub the calipers
THANKS!!!

Baer 14" rotor.
You could use the blue locktite on the last 3/4" of threads on the bolt. You would then have no problem of the elastic stop nut coming off. I have the Baer inst. here in front of me for the bracket(adaptor) that you speak of. It states" Place supplied flat washers on the supplied 14mmx60mm allen head bolts and install itermediate bracket on the inboard side of the mounting surface, with bolts going inboard to outboard and install supplied 14mm Nyloc nuts. Torque to 110 ft lbs. Another words the allen bolts that attaches the Baer adaptor goes in from the backside with the nyloc nuts towards the outside of the car. Hope this helps. Good luck.
