Abstract
A method of machining a wheel hub and brake component in which the braking friction surface is machined together with the hub bearing journal and seat while the hub and braking component are mounted to a single work holding tool thus enabling both surfaces to be machined relative to one another with close tolerances. In the case of a two-piece wheel hub and rotor assembly, the rotor is mounted to the hub in a manner which establishes the relative position of the rotor relative to the hub prior to machining the hub and rotor.
