Hang them off the back of the upright

in the book it says dics brakes upright and for drums turn them length ways.
for discs i have seen them at an angle?

Have a look at enoch's fine work here http://www.deepfolly.co.uk/2.html
he turned the plate round. I don't believe there is an exact angle to turn it, just turn it round as per his pics to give a little more clearance.

Thanks for the help.

Caliper is directly in line with top mount for shocker if made as per book for disc setup. 30 deg ish offset from vertical is some where near but may be better to trial fit before welding

Having one of the threaded holes at 12 o'clock works, I used the top right hole.
