What doesn't line up? Did you put the brake hub back on the correct way, it will probably slide on either direction...

Did you get the right carrier? You may have mistakenly got one for a 450r instead of a 400ex.. Im not sure which one off the top of my head, but one is slightly longer then the other..

Oh yeah everthing will fit like its suppossed to it would seem.. But the brake stay side is the difference.. The rotor will sit to far in for the caliper..

The 400ex carrier is 1/8-1/4 in longer than the 450R carrier, and would throw the brake off, or did you put the rotor hub on backwards?
