I've done a few of these brake swaps and I think that they're all basically the same with variations in the brackets etc.

What I don't want to mislead him on - or anyone else - is that we don't know the origins of the parts.... or their condition... etc. So I'm always cautious about just saying - "IT'S FINE". I'd rather have them check into the dimensions etc.... and make sure the tolerances are okay. What's loose to one guy is perfect for someone else that's done it a few times. But we're not there to feel or see.

Reminds my of Rudy's rear end that had Oldsmobile ends on a Ford 9".... Who does that!!??!! LOL
ok fine! Jeez

I'd rather learn why/how something works then just have it done for me, as frustrating as it can be...now I know. Art Morrison Ent.(Kevin) said the race is not a clearance fit. Slide the races in and once the axles slide in everything is good to go.
I appreciate the feedback and education on what to look for and how it works. I also appreciate all the parts I was given Greg, the pile is getting smaller as they get installed.
just curious, the first picture says the opposite but its hard to tell from the angle.
