I suppose that would have one advantage, in that the drain hole on the original vent would be facing down, if one wanted any condensed water to drain out. , but heck, one could also just switch calipers left to right. It would (obviously) mean rerouting the e-brake cable, which would also be easy enough. So, yes, should work. Not sure if you would have to do any minor grinding on the front ‘ears’ for mounting the caliper, as one has to do to mount the Wildwood on the front.

Is it possible to mount the stock calipers in the front position to use as Ebrake? He already has the Wilwoods installed and saftey wired on the rear mounts..Bill 1362

Whilst ‘inelegant’, at least the stock system works well. I installed Wildwoods on the front of the discs and kept the originals on the back. I did have the originals coated black – heck, doesn’t look that bad.

That's simply not a good solution. Doesn't work as an emergency brake and parking brake function is dubious. If you park your car with the brakes hot they may release when they cool off.

Is anybody using a solinoid based parking brake? Something that that blocks fluid in the brake lines to hold calipers pressed against the rotors. My customer does not want the extra set of E brake calipers..
like IPSCO offers. Bill 1362
