Hello all,

I'm just wondering if anyone knows the QLD regulations regarding how and what brackets for brake caliper conversions are made?
In the UK a conversion bracket can be either machined from a solid lump of steel or made from plates welded together. By a really meaty welder of course 🙂
I'm not sure if in QLD you can machine the bracket from a single piece of steel or if it has to be made from a single piece of steel thats bent to form the brackets needs.

Anyone got any idea?

Thanks

Im not sure sorry, But I'd say your best bet is to Phone John Sherman, at Volksconverisons. - I'd assume he is up to date on these things, since he makes and sells them!!

Once i've got the hubs, discs and calipers sorted maybe see if he can do a one off custom set of brackets 🙂
