I don't have my computer available so searching posts is difficult with my phone.

Purchased an explorer rear disc swap from Quick Performance. I'm ready to put it together. What is "right" or "left"

Does the backing plate mount to the back?

Lille this:

Or like this:

I've had a few beers so forgive my ignorance

One more question...t bolts came with lock washers. Should I use those or just put red locktite on them and torque to 35 ft lbs

It’s me, but I put some sort of lock tight on everything a rebuild, even if it has a lock washer.
some things you just don’t want to loosen up especially on brake components

UPDATE:
One thing I've found is the rotor center hole is .075 (75 thousanths) too small to fit over the raised center register of the new Yukon axle. So.... how hard would it be to sand that down? Maybe I just need to take it to my machine shop... it's just such a small amount to take off...opinions?

Was thinking of using my cylinder bore tool since i don't need those stones anymore.
