Tolerance stack us is about the only thing that makes sense at this point. I replaced the wheel hub/bearing unit just to help eliminate any slop there (plus pass. was on its way out). I was thinking about installing c5 abutments but with the LG brackets, it requires drilling out the holes that the abutments bolt to because C5s use M14 instead of M12 bolts. I'll see how much material I can safely remove from the bracket with a grinder.

Swap the abatment brackets left to right and see if that helps.

If the noise follows the switch you know your abatement bracket must be changed.

Yeah, I already tried that. It helped a little bit (had to turn the wheel more to get noise).
