I just purchased a set of 99-05 miata rear uprights. I started looking for calipers and brackets. Brackets are tuff to find. I did find a set of used brackets and cal. for $100 bucks but I was just woundering if I was missing something. Maybe some cool aftermarket combo kit or whatever.:wave:
Just curious
TIA
Usually they come with the caliper,even on the rebuilt units... (but ask first)

Thanks PooK, I did a search last night and the cheepest I found w/bracket was $100. Ijust didn't want to buy a used caliper and then post some pics on here and have someone say,.... why did't you use the bla bla bla with the miata setup. They are brand new for the same price. You know....That kind of stuff....It can happen.

Hey Garage Dweller, I have a jig (It ain't pretty but it works) that builds the lower arms for the miata rear and pro spindle fronts (Has the right kick-up so not to bind the ball joints)
Its adjustable in length so It should work with what ever chassis design you settle on.
It builds a left and a right of the arms in the pic's below.
I don't know if its worth the cost of shipping both ways to you, but your welcome to use it when your ready?

That sounds great PooK, I am sure its woth the shipping. I will get in touch when/if I get to that point.
I just got in from Ohio where I picked up the donor. Now I am trying to figure out where to put all of this crap and still have room to work. Left @ 3:30 am and drove in 4WD all the way there (4hrs). UGGG What have I done!!!
