Well looking at the massive twin piston calipers going on the rear compared with the tiny grapefruit sized caliper on the fronts there was going to be a problem so I decided to tackle this before going any further. I got my original caliper mount and ground off the dust shield sections and ordered a front caliper for a 2005 Silverado 2500hd.
I did some measuring and test fitted the new caliper bracket and here is what I was left with.
I started fabbing up some pieces and brackets from material that was about 1/4" thick and test fitted with the new caliper in place. I removed the clamps that held it all in alignment for picture purposes.
I am happy with the outcome so far and now I will sandblast these and get them ready for painting. I got carried away cleaning up the welds and am wondering if I should have just left them alone. But anywho, thanks for looking in, gang.
