The Alu bracket will brake as well not just the clip, the brake hoses move back and fourth when pressurized under braking, this is going to stress fracture then brake off the mount right where its bent. It would need a triangle welded in to stop this or for it to be a properly cast unit designed to not bend.

You can do the brake upgrade, just use the stock mount position for the trailing arm and stock brake brackets for now, Later on just move the brackets and change trailing arm position, changing the arms position only requires 10mins and a 17mm and extension and a jack.

Fine, fine… I’ve waited almost 2 years for this rear disc conversion, what’s another week of wait to do them properly. I’ll make the steel brackets at work this week and weld them next weekend.
I painted my front calipers black, but I think I’ll paint them red along with the rear to make them look sportier.
