C4 Brake Bracket

Flying69 · May 18, 2005

I plan on running 12" C4 rotors and calipers on my '69-- I've purchased all the necessary parts, rotors, calipers, spindles etc (everything listed on Pozzi's site). However I couldn't find a definite answer as to where I could get the bracket to mount the calipers. I've searched on here and pro-touring.com and I found several places/people that make the bracket that allow the use of the C5 caliper, but nothing for the C4. Does anyone know where I could get the bracket? Do I need one, or could I even use the C5 bracket? Thanks!

If you buy A1Cardone loaded calipers, they come with the abutement brackets. Last I checked, the part #'s were on David's website in that chart. If you get the part #, your dealer can get the brackets.

doesn't David still have the bracket template on his website?
they are actually really easy to make.

Yeah I've been there, but could only find C5 caliper brackets... am I missing something?

Brackets

I may look into making them myself, but it would be easier to just have them shipped to the house...

Thanks!

He certainly does. They are easy to make. You can even get the steel at Lowes,

I am waiting to do the same upgrade since I have 16" V45 wheels, and from my reading it looks like the C5 brakes will not work. I called Speed Tech a few weeks ago and was told they are in the process of making the C4 bracket. I am hoping when it comes out it will not require filing or shimming of the spindle. Now if they would just get them produced!

Awesome, thanks guys!

There is also a pdf (or similar) file on Davids website that has a really nice C4 caliper bracket template.

Hey flying69 are you just slipping the c4 rotors over the stock drum brake spindle hubs and bolting on these custom c4 brackets--Thats what im trying to do, I got the rotors and calipers off the c4 stuff- and am selling the vette a arms and spindles.
