    Default Centramatic Wheel Balancers

    Centramatic Does Not Make their Wheel Balancers To Fit With Disc Brakes.
    My wheel tire guy said the above statement. Anyone with contrary information??

    I had Centramatics installed on my new coach. They required a minor modification to clear the caliper on my disk brakes. I assumed that they probably bent the unit slightly.

    According to the installer, it was just barely nicking the caliper, and was easy to fix. I haven't yet picked up the bus (leaving tomorrow), but report from driver who took it to JoSams in Orlando for install that it road smooth.

    Harry, I have them on all 3 axles, no problem and no modifications for the install.

    Harry,

    Not sure if it helps, but they installed the following on mine:

    2 sets of 302-M
    1 set of 404-U

    I believe those are the same numbers that Ken Zittrer gave me, which are on his coach.

    Centramatics say they do not have a unit that will work on my coach. They are expensive and I do not want to chance modifying them to work. I will be doing the weight balancing and see how they work.
    Thanks for your input.
