For sale: Mount Brackets, Spacers and hardware for installation of Rear disc brakes for Alpine and Tiger.
Individual components recommended for converting an Alpine rear drum brake system to a more modern Disc/Caliper/Rotor system are from a 1992 Saturn SC rear wheel setup and other interchangeable year/model components available. Nothing special about these components, just what my friend started with, they worked, so that is why the decision to continue.
The designed Brackets and Spacers will fit the bolt holes in the flange on the Stock rear axle housing. They are interchangeable for either right or left sides. The Alpine E-Brake system will function correctly if the Saturn emergency brake lever is replaced with the Lever I designed to work with the Alpine components.
SATURN COMPONENTS RECOMMENDED are:
CARDONE 18B4524 and 18B4525 Remanufactured Unloaded Calipers w/Brackets Left and Right Rears with metal pistons. Estimated cost $60 each
CENTRIC 50007140 PQ PRO; w/Shims and Hardware. Premium Pads, Rear Disc Brakes. Estimate Cost $24 - $26. A set is for both sides.
CENTRIC 12062037 Rotor rear disc brakes. Estimate cost $20 each.
The kit sells for $120.00 + Shipping and consist of:
1. BRACKETS Axle Housing to Caliper OEM Bracket, Quantity 2 each
2. SPACERS Axle to Housing 1/4",1/8", 1/16" in quantities of 2 each
3. LEVER E-Brake replacements Quantity 1 RH & 1 LH
for Saturn stock lever
4. BOLTS ¼ - 20 x 1 ¼” lg w/nuts and washers, Quantity 6 each
5. BOLTS 10 mm 1.5 x 25 12.9 for Axle Housing Bracket to Caliper OEM
Bracket Quantity 4 each
NOTE: If you want me to modify the rotors (4 bolt Sunbeam pattern drilled) as part of your kit, there is an additional cost of $100 to cover: rotors, labor, and shipping (lower 48). If you decide to DIY, make sure you also get the Saturn OEM mount bracket because it is need for mounting to the KIT Axle Housing Bracket.
At this time my caliper mount brackets are available only for the specific wheels I have test fitted on my Alpines as follows:
1. Stock wire 13 inch. 2. Center Line 14x6 inch, and 3. PanaSport 15x7” wheels.
A spacer can be utilized between the hub and wheel in some cases such as the Mags I run on Blue Boy (15x7). Longer studs may be required in some cases, depending on the thickness of the spacer(s). I have not yet completed the Stock Steel wheel 13”application. I want to ensure total safety and performance before offering. Let the Buyer beware..... I stand behind my laser cut brackets and spacers.
