Richard:
I thought about that but it would still be too close. Also, the bleeder
valve would no longer be at the high point and I wouldn't be able to bleed
the calipers properly. I only need a tub that had diameter of 3" and about
2" deep for the calipers to clear. I can almost remove part of the angle
strip and make it work. I'm thinking of just tubbing out the width of the
first board. It wouldn't too intrusive into the box but you would know
something is there!
Thanks,

Jeff is it possible to rotate the calipers in some fashion to get the
clearance you need,, Such as having the axle tube cut rotated and
rewelded...Just an Idea,, might be easier than tubing and keep your stock
box intact,,
