Yes that will come all in good time after ive done the fronts, ive seen the threads, some good info on here about it. Calipers and discs etc are not a problem sourcing. Its that dogbone looking bracket for the caliper i need find. Getting aftermarket parts over here are very rare, cant even find any lowering springs.

Check for a Pedder's distributor... i was really happy with the struts i had for the street, and the springs are supposed to be very similar to the SusTech/Corksport springs I was running.
The dog bone bracket is a custom job. Find a machine shop and give them dimensions... It should be very simple for them to do.

No dealers over here. Its the shipping that puts me off, think they wanted more than the cost of the kit. I will have a look around and see if i can find the dimensions for the bracket.
Well today i was under my car at 5.30am armed with a can of de-icer and a hammer freeing up a rear caliper that had frozen solid, great start to the day. I wont be leaving that handbrake on in this freezing weather again.

Thanks for bringing that up.
Ontopic, I found I need a new radiator. Mines 22 years old and is leaking from the top tank, so im taking my spare into Mack's radiator and having them refurbish it.Mazda
