Brake caliper positional correction device

An apparatus for a vehicle, comprising:

• a spindle sleeve with a spindle sleeve inner surface axis that is coaxial with the axis of an axle, wherein the spindle sleeve has a spindle sleeve outer surface axis that is oriented at an angle to the axis of the axle, wherein the spindle sleeve has an inner surface and an outer surface;
• a hub that has a hub axis that is coaxial with the spindle sleeve outer surface axis, wherein a rotor is coaxial with the hub axis and wherein brake calipers are carried by the axle;
• and
• a brake caliper positional correction device that is carried by the axle and has a correction surface that carries the brake calipers, wherein the correction surface orients the brake calipers such that the brake calipers are properly positioned with respect to the rotor;
• wherein the axle has a caliper mounting bracket rigidly attached to a shaft of the axle, wherein the brake caliper positional correction device is attached to the caliper mounting bracket by a plurality of mounting bolts;
• wherein the brake caliper positional correction device has an outboard component and an inboard component, wherein the correction surface is located on the outboard component, wherein the outboard component engages the caliper mounting bracket such that the correction surface does not engage the caliper mounting bracket, wherein the inboard component engages the caliper mounting bracket such that the caliper mounting bracket is located outboard from the inboard component and such that the caliper mounting bracket is located inboard from the outboard component.
