Hello,

I don't see where it makes any difference. The caliper bracket keeps the caliper from moving in a CCW direction so what would be the difference where the stopping force is applied ?

On my 1961 Morris Minor the calipers are at the front when converting to disc brakes. They have been that way since the first guy made adapters in the 1960's to adapt Midget brakes.

Best

Ray J.
