ABSTRACT:
A disk brake caliper mounting bracket is attachable to an axle tube to mount a brake caliper to the axle tube with a desired positioning and alignment. The bracket includes an axle tube mounting portion and a brake caliper mounting portion. The axle tube mounting portion includes a circular flange for mounting between the axle tube and a wheel mount to accurately position the bracket with respect to the axle tube. The brake caliper mounting portion is positioned at an angle to correspond with a camber of the wheel mount such that when the brake caliper is mounted to the brake caliper mounting portion, the brake caliper is accurately positioned and aligned with a disk brake rotor. The axle tube mounting portion and the brake caliper mounting portion can be integral with one another or separate components attached together.
