Re: D52 Caliper Rear Disc Brake Brackets

Ok thanks! Will do some measuring next time I'm out and I'll let you know. I think the brackets will fit but I'm. Pre worried about the calipers. I guess it all depends on how they will be clocked. I looked at the pics in the thread but it's hard to tell.

Re: D52 Caliper Rear Disc Brake Brackets

Got my "CaptainFab" brackets for my 69' stepside the other day. Machine work was excellent. I did not have any issues with fitment, everything lined up and went together perfect. Only issue I had was the pads were a little thick for the new rotors, I sanded the pads a little and caliper dropped in place then. Here is a couple of picks.....I put a coat of "POR" on the brackets....

Re: D52 Caliper Rear Disc Brake Brackets

Photobucket!!!!! Don't know what happened. anyway kit was great, Good Job Captain. Also, about the same time we had a 1963 c/10 at my repair shop for boost/mc add-on. We needed the bracket that mounts this set-up to the firewall. "CaptainFab" to the rescue once again. Bracket showed up couple days later and worked perfect......Casey

Captainfab: I've got the d52 kit on my 72 c10. My issue is the outer brake pads are dragging the circumference of the rotor on the horizontal surface (hub?? Between the rotor face and the wheel.). Is there a certain set of brake pads you reccomend? Or did I install something wrong?

Re: D52 Caliper Rear Disc Brake Brackets

How long ago did you purchase the D52 brackets? That issue arose quite some time ago, but I made a change to the caliper bracket to correct that.

Re: D52 Caliper Rear Disc Brake Brackets

I will confirm the date of the latest revision tomorrow, but I believe your brackets were before that. The interference issue is due to manufacturing tolerance differences in the aftermarket replacement rotors. Did you purchase the brackets in bare steel or satin black powder coat?

Bare steel, they were assembled on the truck then painted with the rest of the frame. I am running Napa rotors, is there a preferable brand that doesnt cause the interference?

Re: D52 Caliper Rear Disc Brake Brackets

I do not know of any specific rotors that are any different than others and no customers have let me know of any.

My latest revision of the caliper brackets was in October of 2014. So you do not have the revised brackets. If you will send me your shipping info, I will send you a set of the newest caliper brackets.

I think I solved the problem: popped the calipers off and bent the upper "fingers" on the outer pads downward and it seems to have solved the issue thus far. It pulled the pad up of the rotor hat. And there's about a 1/16th -1/8th inch clearance now. If the issue persists I may take you up on that offer. Thanks again!

Re: D52 Caliper Rear Disc Brake Brackets

OK. Hopefully those pads will stay in place up off of the rotor hat. If not let me know.

Re: D52 Caliper Rear Disc Brake Brackets

I have made a fatal mistake on my truck and cannot use your rear brake kit. My truck is a standard with a borg warner R10 overdrive which means my truck freewheels even with the truck in reverse and off. In other words I HAVE TO HAVE an e brake or my truck roles away in gear. I highly apologize and understand if you take some of the refund out for your troubles and fees. Please let me know if a refund is an issue. Again this is my fault and a public apology!

Re: D52 Caliper Rear Disc Brake Brackets

You apparently did not read page 1 of this for sale thread where the e-brake style of calipers are talked about.

Yes I read that but i do not want to use the caddie brakes. I have already purchased the D52's and now have to send the rears back as well. I dont want the mismatched brakes. To be honest it was more about looks than function for me.

He sells brackets for Camaro calipers as well which have e-brake.
