Not as easy as I had hoped... I have the the spindle diameter, bearings, and spacers figured out. I am now working on the bracket. The first attempt had the caliper too low. I am working on a new bracket to move the caliper up so the tie rod end will not hit the caliper. http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e187/Sawmill/108-0887_IMG.jpg Once the bracket is done, I think it might be ready to try out!

I have a few questions: What calipers are you using? What rotors? What wheel diameter, width and backset? Did you have to machine the spindles or anything else? Do you have other pictures? Would you be willing to post a Tech Article on this site when done so others can learn from your experience? Thanks!!  Edit: Sorry - I did a "view all posts" for you and I think I can follow the chain of events. Thanks and good luck. Frank.

Have you checked that?
