    No welding needed you need to shave of the retainer tab for the ebrake cable so it doesn't interfere with the rod.
    There's two mounting brackets & only fit in two positions.. Caliper & Peg, I used a few washers here & there.
    Bolt it together & bleed! Now, my bleeders on the caliper are damaged, any idea where I can find replacements?

    $125/150 for hydro conversion spindles from kenoconnorracing.com
    look under blaster oem prodeucts on there.


    then find some banshee/raptor..... hubs/discs and the hydro lever/lines/calipers on ebay, usually can be had for around $75 total if you do your homework and bid


    total.....under $200
