    The OD and width should have been the same for the Festy and Capri inner. You should be able to put the disc on the drum spindrle using the Festivas inner bearing and seal because the OD are the same for the inners between Festiva and Capri. (Provided I got the correct part numbers).

      By the way attached are the blueprints for these brackets. The files were created with eMachineShop CAD, there is one file for Festiva which I hope is the correct one, and a couple of different version for Aspire - to be honest I simply do not remember which one was best. Maybe it would help someone.

        That bracket is going underneath the spindle?

          Yep.

          Stock spindle bolts are getting towards the edge of threads but work fine, only if you would use any camber shims you would need to upgrade your spindle to longer bolts. We've just went with the slightly larger SAE bolts once we've decided to add the shims.

            I just has such an awful experience yesterday putting new brake shoes on my car. When the opportunity presents itself to get a whole new rear end(because the bottom of the struts [which are basically blown garbage] are essentially welded in because the bolts were rusted out, I am going to do this upgrade. Drums are not my friend.

              These are made for a mazda 2.. Could fit.. Hard to say without knowing exactly the fit of the caliper, bracket to be fit onto the rear hub spindle or spacing between hub and rim.
