FC rear brakes on FB

Sorry guys but I have read through all the threads that have been returned be the search function to no avail. I cannot find the thread I was looking for about using the FC rear calipers on the FB. There was specifically a mention of the dimensions used to create the backet to allow for proper mounting of the FC calipers.

I have the FC front subframe with the 5 lub hubs and will likely pick up the Respeed rear axles... Just looking to save a little as the BB kit from Respeed is $175 and I figure I could use that for new rotor and other goodies.

If anyone can point me in the right direction on this it would be greatly appreciated.

i got an idea, buy my respeed axles and brake kit. the only reason im selling is to swap from the SE specs axles to the GSL spec. thats due to my wheels backspacing. if youre interested, pm me. as a heads up, im not looking to sale them like this week. i dont know how big of a rush youre in.

If the ReSpeed kit is anything like the front kit, its top notch. Definately suggest it.
