ABSTRACT:
A method of manufacturing a corner module assembly wherein a wheel hub is attached to the knuckle and the knuckle is held by a clamping force applied through locator pads and thereafter a radial mounting surface and first and second bosses on the knuckle are machined into parallel alignment with the bases of the locator pads. After a rotor is fixed against the machined radial mounting flange, the first and second braking surfaces on the rotor finished machined, if necessary, into the same parallel alignment with the bases such that first and second friction member retained in a caliper are located in parallel alignment with the first and second braking surfaces when the caliper that is attached to the first and second bosses on the knuckle and finally attachments surfaces on the knuckle are machined. This sequentially machining substantially eliminates assembly tolerances of the corner module assembly.
