I have also ordered a 2009 Dodge 2500/3500 caliper. The Chevy caliper does not fit the Dodge rotor because of overall diameter.... Right now I need some one to waterjet or CNC cut a 3/8" straight bracket...
Here is the factory bracket with one of the ears cut off...
Here is the Chevy rotor and caliper bracket ....
I did pick up a Astro/Safari Hydroboost unit as well as one from a 2005 GMC 3500 truck. I am glad to report that they are interchangable between the two as far as mounting goes. One difference is the Astro has a single keyway where the newer unit has dual keyways. The Astro also has a smaller diameter hole for the master cylinder compared to the GMC 3500. The Astro HB shold support the late 70's Corvette MC for disc/disc brakes. I am using the 05 hydroboost w/ MC and have the Astro/Safari unit in the For Sale section. My goal was to establish if CaptainFab's brackets will work on the newer hydra boost and it does....
