Has anyone here ever installed the Sakebomb Garage competition rear brake kit?

Maybe I’m not fully understanding the fix. Hopefully someone here can help me see the light. The additional spacer/washer definitely helped move the caliper inboard to help eliminate the rubbing of the rotor and caliper bracket. However, it made the interference with the caliper bracket and the bolts that hold the bracket to the the hub worse. Am I missing a step here or is this potentially a new issue?

You maybe got a picture of what you’re talking about here?
 
Quick update. I called Heath and he said the kit is supposed to have hex head bolts with no washers to attach the adapter bracket to the hub assembly. That indeed eliminates the interference with the caliper bracket. My kit didn’t come with those bolts. So he’s going to send them out to me. The only concern is no washer but he said to just loctite them in.

I mocked it up with some bolts I had that were the wrong length and it seems like it will work. The rotor still barely rubs the sheet metal brake pad shim thing but it doesn’t run the bracket itself although it is closer to the inboard side than the outboard side.

I’ll take some pics when I get the new parts.
