I'm at work until 7, and I can't open hma from here.

I need the spacing measurment for the 2 caliper mounting holes on our knuckle.

Measurement needs to be from center to center on each hole. You can either A. Measure the knuckle. Or B. Measure the brake mounting bracket.


Who gets me the info first, will be rewarded with a little gift. It's not much, except to a few people hint:....coughdtncough

Oh this is info for a bbk bolt on.

Hm sorry i got your question wrong, i fail, I measured the caliper-to-bracket guide bolts..

Luckily I also have some front brake shields which go between the bracket and knuckle, the distance is about 12.8-12.9 cm, picture coming up.



Hope this helps, wish I could give you a more precise measurement, but the holes in the plate are probably a little bigger than the bolts and probably don't center perfectly anyway

Is that for the front?

And you might be correct. It needs to be the space center to center between the bolts that mount the caliper to the knuckle. I think those are it?

Yes, these are front backing plates, from the dealership, part number 51755-29300, they go between the caliper bracket and the knuckle
