New help ASAP!

Nothing "keyed" thats out of place?
or maybe something directional installed backwards?

Warped or crooked stud?

Nothing that I can see right now. I checked all the studs for length after install, and all are equal. The rotor isn't sitting flush, and is being forced flush by the lug nuts being tightened. This would seem to indicate to me that somethings not right with the parking brake assembly. I'll be removing the assembly from the opposite wheel, and double checking that emergency brake assembly.....

I'm thinking it is the e-brake b/c it happened to me when I put my spacers on ,verify that the rotor sits flush up against the axle flange and see if it turns if so then bolt the wheel up and try it if it still binds loosen the cable with a 10mm socket under the cup holder and then try it.

First off, thanks for the help. Sometimes I think we just need to bounce things around to keep the stress level mechanical problems cause down.

Once I removed the wheel, caliper and rotor from the opposite side, it just took a couple of minutes of comparing the e-brake systems to see that I had knocked the lower mount point off the passenger side when I "persuaded" the rotor on the night before. The bottom of the e-brake shoes rest on a fixed metal piece, and in forcing the rotor on, I had knocked one side off. This alone caused the rotor to mount slightly crooked, the rotor to contact the caliper, and the hub seize up. We're talking a matter of 3-4 millimeters! Man it doesn't take much to throw everything into wack.

Lesson is, I should have used less force mounting the rotor, which caused the whole problem in the first place.
