Hi all,

When i purchased my R31 rear calipers one had the mount for the handbrake cable cut off.

Searching the net, it looks like the EA to ED falcon rear caliper has a very similar mount. Wondering if anyone has a ford caliper around to measure for me and confirm the standoff distance.

Cheers
Tom

They're similar but I don't think identical - you can see in the bottom photo that the Ford one has a larger offset, I think it may be a little shorter too (have the calipers here but brackets appear to be gone). Have you decided on the cable arrangement though, that may change the distance? Also seems a pity to spend money on a whole set of calipers when you could just make a bracket.
