Weld On Disc Brake Bracket, 8 Lug, 3.0" Axle Tube, Pair

Weld On Disc Brake Brackets for 3.0" Axle Tube

These brackets are designed to weld onto rear axle housings for rear disc brake conversions. The brackets are made from 3/8" steel, and are cut at a height to use 8 lug rotors on a 3.125" tube. They will work on other tube sizes with a little grinding. The brackets fit the standard Chevy front calipers from a '72-'87 Chevy 1/2 ton and 3/4 ton 4x4.

For ease of alignment for welding, clamp these brackets to your rotor with a 3/4" spacer between the two. Install the caliper pins without the caliper. Keep the caliper pins just off the top of the rotor. Do not allow more than 1/8" gap between the caliper bolt and the top of the rotor (two pennies can work good for a gauge). Once the mount is aligned, simply weld it on!

These brackets are sold in pairs. (Quantity of 1 equals 1 pair of brackets.)

Be sure that the brake bleeder is pointing straight up when you weld this on!
