Baer Brake bracket on ridetech spindle

[paulk68]

Anyone have a picture of a baer brake bracket mounted to a ridetech spindle with true turn what to make sure i use the correct hardware. ridetech included 2 bolts but I am not sure what to use for the second mounting holes?

so the baer kit came with a 3' and 2.75" bolt for the braket. as you can see the 2.75" bolt is going to hit the posi link when I turn. is it safe to run a 2" bolt on this braket? i will keep the 3" at the tie rod end

so I am running the 2" bolts with nylock nuts torqued to 85 ft lb's per baer instructions. My question is are these long enought, this is how it looks torqued down should I look to run a little bit longer bolts? this is what holds the caliper bracket to the spindle. thanks

Ideally, you should have at least 2-3 threads sticking through the locknut, so I would think that a 1/4" longer fastener in that application would be in order.

I can get a photo tonight.

I just realized I put non-locking nuts on for all the fit-up work. Once I put a tall self-locking nut on there it will probably look the same. I think I will just buy a shorter all-metal locknut when I do the final install. I agree that good practice is to have 1.5 - 2 threads past the locking feature.
