I have been having a problem with the rear caliper on my 98 Cobra hitting the rotor....

It's gotten bad over the last few days...tore it down a few times replacing this and that...it always looks fine till you drive it a ways.

Noticed on the last look tonight that if I pull on the axle, it moves out enough to allow the rotor to hit the caliper...that's the problem.

Checked the other side and there's play, but not near that much.

What do you guys think is the problem...does the rear have to come apart?

I'm getting 4.30's if they have to go into it hard...I was thinking a worn C-clamp or something, but I'm not a rear end guy.

Thanks,
EJ
