I found out the hard way too is that the banjo bolt is too short and the calipers that I got from CPP where the crush washers mounted is counterbored....not the right way at all. the OEM ones I got from Advance Auto had a nice boss that set up from the mounting surface so there was more space to mount the flex line and the 7/16" banjo bolt had plenty of metal to screw into...
I wish I was handier than I am...my dad told me years ago I was parts changer but not a mechanic...I tend to agree now that I am older...I can bolt stuff together and I can take stuff apart....as far as trouble shooting car stuff...I draw a big blank...
I should at 54 years old be able to fabricate my own brackets and figure all the other stuff to make disc brake bolt onto a 1952/53 Chevy truck spindle...but I cant...
my 2 cents again...
As always....cant wait to get it done...
