Re: D52 Caliper Rear Disc Brake Brackets

Still trying to decide whether to go 6 lug or 5 lug, is there a 6 lug rotor that will work?

Sorry, I should also add that it is a 68 c10, 12 bolt that is currently 6 lug.

Re: D52 Caliper Rear Disc Brake Brackets

There is not a 6 lug rotor that is interchangeable with the 5 lug Astro/Safari rotor.

I do make 2 different 6 lug rear disc conversion brackets.

Thanks for the reply. Do you have a conversion if I would decide to go with 5 on 4.75?
Thanks

Re: D52 Caliper Rear Disc Brake Brackets

I started working on e 5 x 4.75 rear disc conversion several months ago, but never had time to finish it. I'm just not sure when I will have time. I'm still working 70-80 hrs a week and no relief in sight

Re: D52 Caliper Rear Disc Brake Brackets

Do you know what caliper and rotor you would use with that kit; or have you gotten that far?

Re: D52 Caliper Rear Disc Brake Brackets

The rotor is a late '70's TA rotor. The caliper I would have to look at again and see what I was using on this one.

Re: D52 Caliper Rear Disc Brake Brackets

Hello I came across this post as I was searching for a solution for my rear brakes. Would this work on 1979 Camaro 10 bolt rear? The shocks are staggered does that matter?

Re: D52 Caliper Rear Disc Brake Brackets

None of my rear disc brackets will work on a car differential except for the Impala differential which has the same backing plate flange as the 1/2 ton trucks. They are all designed for use with the '64-'82 truck 12 bolt and '80-'91 8.5" truck 10 bolt

Re: D52 Caliper Rear Disc Brake Brackets

Well I guess I need to figure out how to get more than 24 hours out of a day and get those brackets finished up.

Re: D52 Caliper Rear Disc Brake Brackets

Captain,
Will your brackets work with c clip eliminaters?

Re: D52 Caliper Rear Disc Brake Brackets

I have not tried it but I don't think will work. The base bracket bolts to the backing plate flange on the wheel side just as the C-clip eliminator does.

Re: D52 Caliper Rear Disc Brake Brackets

I managed to squeeze a little extra time to work on the 5 x 4.75 conversion a couple days ago. If I get done early enough with the job in the shop tomorrow I'll see if I can make some more progress.

I have a truck 12 bolt but my axles have been re-drilled for the 5 x 4.75 pattern.

Re: D52 Caliper Rear Disc Brake Brackets

The new brackets I am working on are designed for that application or a Impala/Caprice with the 5 x 4.75" bolt pattern.

Re: D52 Caliper Rear Disc Brake Brackets

What pads you guys recommend for the d52 ' s that aren't $150 a set. I've got wilwood ' s on the front and stock front calipers on the rear. Truck will be mostly street with some autocross.
