Reverse Scarebird Adapter?

[jimmyray]

I installed the Scarebird Front Disk Brake adapter on my 66 cuda last year, and it is working great. However, because of the forward position of the caliper, I had to remove my Addco sway bar. Does anyone know if the adapter can either be rotated 180 degrees to move the caliper to the rear, or perhaps swap the brackets side to side to accomplish the same? Would love to have my sway bar back!

Good question, I was researching Scarebird awhile back and thought I had read where you could do that, but cannot find it now. If you cannot just turn the plates, I wonder if you can swap the spindles to accomplish the same thing?

I'm sure the bracket will fit reversed, but am unsure if it will interfere with the Lower Ball Joint, or something else. And, of course, the bleeder valve will be on the wrong end of the caliper. Not sure if the caliper can be swapped to opposite sides as well.

change the whole spindle from L to R?
