What model centramatics are you running?

For those who use centramatics, what model do you use. I bought a set of 300 series for my Ram and they won't clear the brake calipers. Any one else have this problem?

I think I'm running the 300's with no problems. You might have to get a spacer from centramatic to be able to clear the caliper. Have you tried flipping the disc around?

Yes I tried flipping both the A and B balancers. With the lug nuts on lightly the balancer touches the wheel and rubs the caliper. If I torque them down, I'm certain it will bind on the caliper. I'd like to avoid using a spacer but it that's what it's going to take then so be it. I wonder if the larger balancers for duallys work on single axle trucks without having to use a spacer.

On my 3500 I have to run the 400 series. I was originally shipped the 300's and they wouldn't work. Did you order them from Centramatic? There's allot of confusion about the fitment, from the dealers, and I found the only way to get the correct part numbers was to call Centramatic and talk to them.

I ordered them from a centramatic dealer. After talking to both the dealer and centramatic, they are going to send me a spacer. I'm not to thrilled about spacers in general but the told me it is very sturdy and I shouldn't worry about breakage.
