It seems your bracket and spring kit does not work for 1976-1978 Cadillac Eldorado calipers as that is what I have. I have those because I was told that that the later 79-85 calipers will not bolt up to your caliper brackets as they are a different bolt pattern or else I would have purchased the 79-85 calipers.

My calipers are like the ones posted by Twisted78ss posted on page 15 as his right caliper does not have a bolt hole in order to attach the lower e-brake bracket and neither of my calipers have that hole either.

I will try to figure out how to post a pic of my calipers although I dont see how that will help now that I have seen what was posted on pages 12 and 15 and the lack of bolt holes to attach that bracket.

I would like your input on this as to what needs to happen so I can move forward.
