I got everything in the mail. It looks awesome, I am very happy with it. There's just one small problem. The brackets are designed to be used on a 6 lug truck, with Toyota rotors, which are more shallow than these mustang rotors, so the rotors are off center to the caliper. I spaced the bracket out 1/4" and it looks like it'll work, so I'm gonna have to cut a spacer to go between the axle flange and caliper bracket.

That rear end is turning out awesome!

I'm trying to decide on getting that bracket and making a spacer or making the bracket.

If I would've known that I was gonna have to make a spacer, I probably would've just made the bracket, haha. Oh well.

Sorry I didn't warn you earlier I didn't see your post. I was going through threads on disc brakes on yota axles and someone posted up about the 4x4 bracket. I still haven't ordered my parts to swap mine, I'm lacking the project funds and time at the moment.

Tre5 makes a bracket where there is no spacing etc needed.... It is pretty pricey... But was well worth it to me anyways.

Yea tre5 and Little Shop both have kits but they were both almost $500 for kits with slotted rotors. After everything I've made and gonna have to make for this truck, I'm not too worried about spacers, haha. Jus would've been cool to save $75

Finally had time to finish welding the frame out. All welds are ground down. I am gonna make fish plates for the joints now. And I'm having the tabs cut out for the 3 link.
