That’s pretty much what I was looking at doing.

In your opinion, will there be any concern using that method…considering the adapter doesn’t fully span the width of the bracket?

I kinda think it will be fine.

Don't think there will be any problem at all.

If you use the reducer bushings you show, there will be even less of any issue (assuming the overall length is the same as the ones I show) because less flange thickness means more penetration into the bracket

Thinking the same.

Worst case, I cut both reducers to 1/2 the size of the Bracket…and insert both of them from opposite sides. 🙂

Parts arrived. Woot.

I think I’m going to find chrome bolts for it.
thought I’d be able to use a (right) front caliper on the bracket…after seeing the difference with the rear-specific caliper, I don’t think it would be a good idea to try.
