Yes I have some progress and updated pictures that I will upload in the days to come. I got new mounting plugs installed at my friends machine shop and the calipers now fit perfectly on the original BMW X5 caliper mount. So now I just need to source some longer caliper bolts, new pads and hoses and I am ready to install. I should have all this together in the weeks to come. Stay tuned.

Damn, might have bought an X5 just in time. Interested to see finished product and get updates on full cost for the conversion.

Yes it has but it's just that some other priorities take place before this extra curricular project. The newly machined calipers are sitting in the same box on my garage floor just as I left them from unpacking the X5 from the thanksgiving Florida trip. Be patient I'll get the latest shots up to witness.
