mounting rear callipers GTS
Fellow builders!
Picking up my callipers today and not sure how they mount,
I have goth the sliders/hangers with the callipers.
Do i still need to use the brackety thing that i got from GTS that looks like it mounts to the upright?
Or do they mount directly onto the bearing carrier holes?

From what I understand, there are 2 types of rear hub. One for brake drums and the other for brake discs. If you have a rear disc caliper then you
already have the extra holes for the caliper mount to affix. However, if you have a rear drum hub then there are only 4 holes and this is where the
bracket helps to add the extra 2.
So, if the donor car was a disc setup already you won't need the extra bracket.
