Default removing wilwoods

today i tried removing one of my wilwood brakes (Front) in preparation to install a stock caliper and rotor. i realized that the holes on the caliper do not line up on mounting area. The car came with the wilwoods so i think im missing a part, kind of what the wilwoods have to make them adapt onto the car. Can anybody direct me to the part i need, i tried a search and did not yield any results.

Thanks

Steve

Are you sure you have the right caliper? Do these calipers have a separate mounting bracket? A picture might help, but this also might be the wrong bracket or caliper for your car.

it sounds like you haven't removed the willwood adapter bracket for the calipers yet.

Thats possible. A picture will clear all this up. The stock AP2 front calipers are going to have two 'tabs' on the bracket with threaded holes that use the OEM 17mm head flange bolts.
