D52 Caliper with E-brake...Need help with rear disc brakes - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I just purchased brackets from Captainfab to convert to the d52 style rear disc brakes. I would like to have my rear e-brake remain operable. To do this calipers from a 1976-1978 Cadillac Eldorado is needed. Problem is I can not find any at my local pic an pulls. I need them as they have a $40 each core and even more importantly I need the ebrake levers to swap over to the new calipers.

Does anyone know of any other applications that use the D52 caliper with an integrated ebrake like the eldorado?
