I'm a little lost, machine a .5" slot on the side of what? the trailing arm? I've thought about that, but i would rather go with something like you have, bolt on, no machining required. That way if you ever bend a trailing arm, you don't need to modify a new one.

My idea was to make a base that pushed up against the back of metal on either side of the 8x1.25 bolt hole (used for the sheet metal on the back side of the brake), and have a tab that bolts to it. Then have an arm that goes out from there and holds a caliper. It doesn't need to be super-strong, its just keeping the potential energy of the car from starting, the real strengh is stoping the car.

Your thoughts?
