135i & 335i Dual Caliper Bracket Kit
The Original BMW Dual Caliper Solution! Patent No.: 11,015,667
This dual caliper bracket kit is the easiest and least intrusive way to install a true Formula Drift style secondary/dual caliper hydraulic handbrake setup. Mad skids have never been easier! Don’t use an in-line system; they lead to constantly changing brake bias and inconsistent pedal feel. Our standalone dual caliper kits offer the best performance and easiest installation. Read below to find out how we offer the strongest kit on the market.
With this kit you can install a hydraulic handbrake to do epic drifts just like FD2 driver Micah Diaz does on Hoonigan using our products! Video Link

About:
Our brackets are designed and machined by professional automotive engineers in the USA to be as strong as possible with no compromises, are manufactured in our own machine shop out of aerospace-grade 6061 aluminum to assure the highest quality, use high-end ARP hardware, and are all shipped directly from our door to yours. Feel free to reach out with any questions during your build.
Why Choose SLG Brackets?:
Our brackets are designed to not put the force of the handbrake through the dust shield bolts alone like our competitors bracket kits do. We also use an extra bolt that goes in through the back of the arm for unsurpassed strength. A bonus feature is that our bracket kits always allow you to keep the factory rotors, and never require you to remove the hub to install the kit.
Our brackets are different for every sub-model, as they all have slightly different knuckles. By doing this we can individualize each bracket model to "grab" parts of each knuckle, which are all different. We also use the factory e-brake pad posts and other machined surfaces on the knuckle to further reduce the stress the bolts encounter. By doing all of this we are able to offer the strongest bracket on the market.

Install Instructions
Install notes:

- Unbolt the dust shield and cut it, so you are able to bend it around the hub and remove it from the vehicle.
- Clean the trailing arm to remove rust and uneven surfaces.
- Bolt up the billet bracket to the trailing arm, using blue Loctite on the ARP hardware.
- Install the 10mm allen head screw into the bracket from the backside of the trailing arm, through the factory e-brake cable hole.
- Install brake rotor
- Reinstall primary caliper in factory location, and install secondary caliper to the bracket.
