Abstract

See full text

A two-piece stamped caliper adapter includes a cast iron anchor and a stamped steel adapter plate. The stamped adapter plate includes reinforcement ribs for providing structural rigidity and stiffness to withstand the loads imposed by a vehicle wheel brake system. A stamped caliper adapter makes a redundant drum brake assembly more readily adaptable to most vehicles and provides other cost-saving economies. In the preferred embodiment, the cast iron anchor and the stamped steel adapter plate are bolted together and the stamped steel adapter plate is spot welded to a drum brake assembly backing plate.
