notched is no good, i wanted to 'notch' the 2 pieces last minute hoping a larger weld would add rigidty (?, sounds like a word right). the guy said great idea but ultimately no because the 'notch' will have tiny cuts in it which can later cause cracks.
also, wat metal did u use? i wss tossing around a 929 caliper adapter to bolt onto the oem caliper bracket out of steel from home depot, i didnt wanna offer it til i tested n beefed it up, another guy had the same idea, sold for $100 each n people started complaining about bends. i optedfor a slab of cold rolled aluminum , bout $20 more but much stronger
