Re: DIY 8 lug Disk Brake Conversion

Nick, I can't tell for sure from your pics, but it looks like the way you have your calipers mounted isn't going to work. The caliper should be mounted so that it can slide in the direction that the cylinder pushes it so that the pads center themselves on the rotor. The outer pad doesn't move in relationship to the caliper so the caliper has to move. In the pic it doesn't look like the caliper can move as it is against the bracket.
