Since I will be required to have a mechanial parking brake to get the car registered I need to change the calipers. I have seen it mentioned that the '89-'94 Suzuki Swift GT rear brake caliper could be used on the '92 Geo Metro front end (which is going to the rear of my car). I ordered these (Raybestos 10051/10052) but the mounting holes don't line-up with the mounting holes on the Geo upright. Caliper holes are 115 mm center to center and the upright holes are 130mm. Does anyone have any experience with this or have other ideas?
