Im putting together a 86T3 w/widened rear axle. The carrier looked stock but has a grease fitting in the middle. When i went to bolt up rear stock brake caliper the mounting holes are about an inch wider than the caliper bracket. Anyone ever seen this before and does anyone think they have a solution? I thought about fabing a bracket to bolt on but that would offset too much and brake rotor wont line up. I want to use the stock kawasaki caliper but dont know what to do.

Sounds like it might be a 1987 carrier because the 87 was a wider mount for the caliper.I welded a extra piece of metal on a 85 caliper and redrilled it to make it work once.
Finding a 87 caliper may be difficult.

Does anyone know if a rear caliper off a T4 will fit on a 87 T3 carrier?
