Hey Mechanixman

I got my caliper brackets from the vendor (I had talked about earlier)and they look great...looks like 3/8" thick plate and it is anodized too....I am going to try and post some pictures on here if you dont mind...In his ad he said they were for the 1955 style 8 lug pickup truck...I am hoping they will adapt to the 48-54 stuff without too much problems.
He sent me all the fasteners too.
I am thinking if I can figure this thing out I might buy the rest of the parts from him.
He told me the calipers were from a Chevy Suburban and the rotors were from a K20 truck...Dont quote me on that..I will have to check my notes..

He seems to be a real straight shooter too.
