Very descriptive

When u set the brake pads over the rotor like they are supose to go, the caliper mount is 1/4 inch from the frame mount.. Its like i would haft to put shims behind it b4 i could tighten it down. Also the holes on the caliper don't line up with the holes on the atv there 2 far apart. Are allthe yfz models the same ?? Should they all work ??

The bleeder up seems to look like it would work btr but iv turned each one every way and still nothing lines up

I believe 04 thru 09 yfz450 calipers are all the same
I just bought a right side 06 yfz450 caliper so when it gets here I'll see if I have the same problem.
But they should bolt right up

If they sold you the correct ones, they for sure will work.
The caliper itself slides on the mounting bracket, this may be stuck not allowing it to bolt up. If you use a little WD40 on the slides and work it back and forth I'm sure it will free up.
You might need to open your pads up a little wider. With it on the bench I use a welding clamp to push the pistons back into the caliper by squeezing the pads back towards the caliper body.
I think you just have a set that needs a little tlc to getthem moving again.

what part of the rock shield do you trim above caliper? or bottom? or both?

 

[sparkymichigan]

I trimmed both with some tin snips until I liked the fit.

Humm, I did this mod and it was a direct bold up. no issues.

 

[duneracerweston]

im with dean, but ALL yfz calipers are the same, and 700 raptors, so theres just a minor issues on fitment here.

The only this mod won't work is if you 1st gen spindles on your quad
