When i ordered my rear axle's from moser i had told the guy i would be running either wilwood or aerospace disc's. My questions is it looks to me that the caliper bracket slides around the axle and bolts to the housing. My axles have the sealed bearings and have a retainer on them. Does the caliper bracket bolt over top of the retainer or does the retainer have to be removed from my axles and then the caliper bracket bolt on? Sorry if this sounds confusing.

I have wilwood brakes and had to remove the retainer from the bearings. The caliper brackets act as the retainer.

I just got my mosers axle last week with 5/8 studs.i have wilwood rear brakes but like Bill said u won't need the moser retainer you will use the black retainer that hold the caliber to the housing.also if anyone going to use 5/8 studs will need the drill the 1/2 hole with a 11/16 drill bit which I felt spending that kind of money that should be an option when one order the brakes
with it should be an option, I doubt you get 11/16 to work. it was still tight on my 5/8 studs. it had to go to 3/4 to clear.

Thanks quicktree,glad u said that before I use this drill bit.When I called moser he said 11/16 bit but you have tried it but didn't work so back to the store
check it before you drill !!!!! your studs may be different than mine. you will have to di it on a drill press.
