Anybody recognize This is on front of 57 with a set of two piece rotors. There’s thread inside.

 

Haven't we already done this??

What kind of caliper will go on these since they have the threads in mounts?

 

I don’t understand the threads. The bolts usually come from inside out. Got me lost.

 

The 'bolts' are really pins with a thread just under the head. Regular gm stuff.

Not exactly the same but watch this from about 12 minutes and you'll see what you want to know.

G.m. either early or metric caliper....

Just have to pull measurements to see which one....

Pretty much a standard issue caliper bracket for a GM caliper that is used on an early spindle.
The caliper slips down over the rotor and the bolt and pin as it is called goes through that hole and through the caliper Through the bracket and through the other side of the caliper and the threads screw into the threads on the bracket with the bushing being clamped tight to the bracket for the caliper to slide on. This is how single piston GM calipers work.

 

Damn I had a brain fart. Caliper mounts on other side of plate.

 

Hadn’t worked on early ones in a bit. Retired ATT fleet mech lol. Lotta new stuff. Thanks. Got it
