Default Problem Resolved

I finally took my beauty to a mehanic who knows Cobras. He looked at a more recent control arm from a newer SPF Cobra and noted that the lower part of the control arms are beveled away from the rotor in the same place where mine rub. (Obviously, mine are not beveled). He pulled the front wheels, brake assemblies and then grinded (or is it ground?) a bevel on the lower part of the outside of the control arms. I think we can assume that the beveling of later models fixed a design flaw.

Thanks to all those who emailed me or spoke to me. What a nice group of people you SPF owners are!!!
