The caliper mounts UNDER the rotor. That way you can hook the link up to the cable with the cable mounted in the original location. No custom cable, just a rod to connect to the caliper arm.
The bearing and calipers don't have to be removed, just the bolts that hold the caliper on. Then you replace them with grade-8 bolts that are longer. The park brake caliper bracket acts as a washer. The material is 1/2 thick 6061-t6 aluminum plate. |
