Progress on build

All great ideas, gentleman! All roads lead to Rome. My fabrication skills are rather primitive and I am trying to assemble a proper workshop in the garage with the right equipment and tools.

I've had good luck with these brackets. I've used 3 of them now

Nothing is wrong with having few fab tools. My extent of fab tools are an angle grinder, a few hand saws, a metal chop saw, a drill press, and maybe a few other small things. With my tools it wouldn't be too hard to make something for a disc brake. From the sound of it you have less fab tools than I so I understand. I just recently got the drill press and chop saw.

Aluminum is actually very easy to fabricate. You still need to fabricate a mount from steel to weld on. Aluminum is alot softer so it's way easier to cut and drill.

Yeah but its less than 15 dollars for a prefabbed steel tab.
