C6ZO6 caliper & parking brake brackets for a Ford 9" from KORE - Lateral-g Forums

Got these today and thought I'd share some pics. For those that are running C6ZO6 brakes on a Ford 9", KORE's new bracket kit will allow you to simply bolt the calipers on and use the OEM drum-in-hat parking brake. It's an extremely nice and complete kit, the plating is great, the machining on the backing plate is like art, and all fasteners are included, which are grade 8. The instructions are are extremely detailed, too.

Yep, I'm running the new big style/Torino bearings, but this kit is available in 3 different 9" housing end bolt patterns.

Im going to put a 9 inch in my Camaro and yesterday was given a complete set of C6 calipers . What 9 inch housing should I look for ,is one better than the other???

I have the Torino style big bearing housing ends and that's what I'd recommend. Its 2.5" housing face to axle flange gives enough room for the DIH parking brake.

Here's what Tobin at KORE told me about his brackets and Ford housings:

As far as applications go, the kit is only compatible with the Big-Bearing Torino style housing and soon to be the Small-Bearing housing as well. The old style Big-Bearing housing with 1/2" T-bolts will probably not happen due to the very short brake offset dimension of 2.36"...it's causing interference issues between components that we may not be able to get around without excessive tweaking.

Looks great Scott !! Great machine work on the backing plates. I'm constantly amazed at what we can buy for our cars now. Looking forward to seeing the completed deal. Thx !
