I orderd a team rear tapered carrier for my 06 400ex. Fit perfect but the brake stay is wrong. The mountign holes are roughly a half inch different. When did they change to a different caliper/brake stay? I need to buy an older caliper so i can put the brakes back on. Its going to take team a month or so to laser the right bracket and i cant wait that long..thanks!

I had the same problem with my rad carrier. what I did is took the stock brake stay and bore out the hole so it would slide on the new carrier. if your carrier came with a spring sleeve or something to put the correct preload on the baerings, then make sure you put it between the axle nut and the brake hub otherwise your calliper will be out of allignment with the rotor. Found that out the hard way.
