How did you get the half moon piece to stay in the bolt holes?

 

I think they just formed to the hole. Wouldn't take much to tap them out.

 

did you make them and if so out of what?

 

Aluminum round stock. Turned, drilled, and split. I've been doing machine work for a long time but I've seen some guys that could get real creative w/ a tool in their hand.
You might find some tubing that's close enough and split it w/ a dremel and a cut-off wheel. Shim stock might work as well.

 

I am just new to all this fab work, I have done a little cutting and welding before but I have never messed around with anything like this.

 

Bringing back the dead if anyone cares to help. Has anyone made a relocation bracket for the 02 yet? Something to fit the 15" rim better? I bought some s-10 calipers but my problem is not that but the bracket. I was running a eagle 15x8 with out issue then I converted to a 5 lug pattern and my summit brand 15x10 prostars are rubbing and broke my locker. I haven't messed with my truck in 3 years I'm just trying to get back on it. I have brand new moser axles new rims and slicks and have not run it yet, just been sitting in the weather for 3 years on jackstands.

 

as far as I know, the S10 calipers with a little work is still what most use.

 

I just need more clearence from a caliper bracket

 

youre gonna have to take a pic LOL... I dont guess I understand what youre saying.

 

well damn, so it took me going to biloxi to get your *** in gear to mess with the truck? wtf, enjoyed chatting with you saturday, been along time Eric, keep the urge bro, need anything let me know, want me to mill those calipers? i can do it here at work.

3 years is way to long, but since i know of the conditions it happens, in the hopes all works well for ya cheers to ya!!!
