Why You Should Double - Check Your Parts When You Receive them.

FINALLY got around to putting the front brake assembly back together.
"This isn't as hard as I thought..." I thought to myself (as nobody else was present).
When I went to mount the hub,I noticed that the hub didn't protrude like it did when
I pulled it off.Looked at the clock,& Moss motors (East) closes their order desk at 4:30 PM.
This was 4:45.
Went back & double checked the part numbers on the boxes of the new rotors -
turns out that they were for disc wheels,NOT wire wheels.
Since I bought them from Moss over two years ago,I don't know if they'll exchange
them.
