Ok..I got a disc rear end and 10 bolt backing plates from ebmiller. Im about to get a pair or pbr disc calipers from someone on this site, but it doesnt include the mounting bolts. What do I order??....The only relative parts I can find are the rear caliper "bolts" and the rear caliper "pin boot kit"....even if these parts are correct I dont know how they mount..anyone got a pic or an exploded view??

The left are the bolts , and the right is the "pin boot kit"....any bushings needed like the front discs use or is this equivalent to the pic on the right?

 

I did the conversion. The following may be helpful:

Your pic shows caliper parts, not mounting hardware.

Ive read that thread a hundred times and it has helped me with getting the parts I need for my disc swap. However, I just read it again and I dont see where it mentions anything about mounting hardware. I need the bolts that mount the calipers to the backing plate.

 

Maybe a hundred and one times . From the link:

"I used grade 8 bolts from CarQuest to mount the backing plates to the axel flanges--check the first link for appropriate sizes. Carrier to backing plate bolts are GM (P/N 10164181)."

I already have that. My backing plates are already mounted to the axle with the bolts that ebmiller sent with the backing plates. I need the mounting hardware for the caliper to the backing plate. For example the front uses 2 allen head bolts to attach the caliper to the hub. I need whatever it is for the rear

 

Note the p/n above. These attach the caliper carrier to the backing plates. The following is a pic, although you can only see one of the two bolts (the carrier is red. Could it be that you're missing that part?):

There we go...sorry about that JAmes. I think your right. I might be missing the carriers. Where can I get those and what do they look like?....So i need the carriers and the bolt kit (GM (P/N 10164181). Heres a pic of the calipers. The carriers r missing right?

 

I recently ordered a caliper from Advance Auto and it came with the carrier in place. Check this link for a pic:

You're missing the carrier. Yes, you need it and the bolts. By the way, the pictured calipers are missing the e-brake lever, spring, bracket--all difficult to locate individually, I'd think. If you haven't purchased yet, you might reconsider, or use them as cores. The caliper I mention above not only came with the carrier, but everything but the spring.
