Re: D52 Caliper Rear Disc Brake Brackets
I received my brackets today and they look great. Also I told John I needed these brackets as soon as possible because I had my truck on stands waiting to finish the install and he went out of his way to get the to me asap.
Thanks again John I really appreciate the great service and product. Joe |

Re: D52 Caliper Rear Disc Brake Brackets
Bob. The brackets I made for you do not utilize D52 calipers. They use D154 calipers which are similar but smaller. Did your calipers come with the levers, cable brackets and springs? The cable housing attaches to the cable bracket with a clip and the cable itself goes up thru thru spring and connects to the notch in the lever.

Re: D52 Caliper Rear Disc Brake Brackets
Won't these brakes cause pad knockback on the 12-bolt?

Re: D52 Caliper Rear Disc Brake Brackets
What do you mean by "pad knockback"?

Re: D52 Caliper Rear Disc Brake Brackets
This is when the rotor deflects slightly, pushing the pad and piston in with it -- the result is less braking power until the brakes are actuated again. This site does a good job explaining but seems to be missing illustrations:
http://www.stoptech.com/technical-su.../pad-knockback On full-floating rears this isn't an issue, but with our 12 bolts there's some axle endplay that causes pad knockback. Floating calipers get around this with the ability to move with the hub. Fixed calipers like these do not. An alternative solution although not 100% effective is to use c-clip eliminators which hold the axle in place to a much greater degree. So I guess the answer is that these calipers are ok if you are running c-clip eliminators.

Re: D52 Caliper Rear Disc Brake Brackets
Is this 'pad knockback' something you have experienced with your rear disc brakes? Did you purchase a set of these D52 brackets from me?
The D52 calipers are not solidly bolted to the caliper bracket. They do slide on the 'bolts' that connect them to the caliper bracket. Yes the axles in a semi floating differential do have some lateral movement. In a differential that is in good condition, that movement should be minimal. I have not had one complaint regarding 'pad knockback' from any of my 100+ customers that have bought any of my rear disc brackets. Quote:

Re: D52 Caliper Rear Disc Brake Brackets
My bad, I saw the first brake pic and it looks like the willwoods have front and back pistons which would make it a fixed caliper! Since these are floating I surmise that they'd work well without the c-clip eliminators.

Re: D52 Caliper Rear Disc Brake Brackets
No. Those are the smaller Metric calipers. Only the '76-'79 calipers as stated in this thread.

Re: D52 Caliper Rear Disc Brake Brackets
If you have your PayPal settings turned on, you will receive an automatic shipped notice along with the tracking number. I should be able to ship your D52 brackets tomorrow.

Re: D52 Caliper Rear Disc Brake Brackets
You wouldn't happen to have any pics of someone using this kit with a porterbuilt rear 4 link would you? I'm wanting to get a set of brackets but think I'm gonna have issues with the panhard bar bracket interfering with the caliper with my differential being narrowed 8.50 inches

Re: D52 Caliper Rear Disc Brake Brackets
Sorry but no I do not. No one sends me pictures. All there are, are what you see in this thread.
What about moving the caliper to the front of the differential? Quote:

Re: D52 Caliper Rear Disc Brake Brackets
The inside surface of the caliper bracket will be 1-5/8" inside from the outside of the backing plate flange.
