Mikes Custom Bracket

Line indicatiing where the spindle needs to be trimmed.

Once cut, grind down and smooth corners. Also grind part number in cast.

Bolt up brake bracket, rotor, and caliper. Position caliper on rotor, locate second hole to be drilled.

Hole is drilled

Caliper bolts up nicely

The fabrication of the brackets took a few hours, then once I had a template made out of 1/8" steel, I drew up a plan with dimensions and gave it to the machine shop. Got them back today, fit perfectly, took 10 mins to bolt up. I had the driver side all done in an hour or so, lines and everything. I started today on the pass side and almost finished within an hour. So far so good.

how much are the brakes? Is that bracket billet or are those weld marks?

I have seen alot of Saleen brake systems on sale on ebay. Will this Mod work for them also??? If so, could you have some brakets made up and sell them? This is just a thought...


Thanks,
Dale in San Antonio...

Those are welds, Tig welded on stainless brackets. Im not sure if the Saleen brakes will fit this bracket, I would need to have a pair in hand, or you can find out if they're identical. Ill be selling these brackets once I put them through some rigorous testing at the track, I dont forsee any problems.
