Caliper brackets

Since no one can depend on Re-Speed, does anyone know of another company/person that can make the front caliper brackets for the T2's?
Thanks in advance.

There are several of us who are making our own. Kind of a pita but that's about the only option that I know of. Any local machinist could probably make you a spindle adapter for the inner wheel bearings as long as you take the spindle and new hubs to him but it may cost a little bit.

I have already made the bearing adaptor, just wanted to see if someone is making the caliper brackets. Thanks for the reply.

Np dude. This is a very missed kit as of late. Maybe when the brackets are done we can all pool together to have several kits made for the club.

Rotornoob,

This is the only pic I have for the bearing spacer. It was not cheap to make.

Thanks for the pic if you don't mind me asking, how much WAS the spacer?

Your welcome. 2 pieces of that stock cost me $50 at a steel shop.
