I opted to make the most of what I got by adding a bridge bolt to my Dynalites. It comes standard on the Dynalite narrow caliper so I figured what the hell it can't hurt and must surely stiffen the caliper. I added a 1" master and gutted sport rears brakes. That should keep me happy for a while.

I ordered the bolt, spacer and nut from summit. Let me work on part numbers for you guys. I did it to stiffen the caliper not for better pad retention. I had to shave down the top of my current pads to fit. Next time around I'll just order the correct ones.

Gutted rear is the process of removing the e-brake adjuster from the caliper. Lots of threads about this floating around. It helps keep the pedal high as the pads wear. The caliper now works like a standard one instead of a self adjuster style.

Sorry I can't seem to dig up the info. I ordered them through Summit Racing but there is no history available on there site.
IIRC I called Wilwood and got the part numbers from them and then ordered from Summit.

I looked through my e-mails too. I think I checked out as a "guest" hence no record of the transaction. I should have posted this last year when it was all fresh in front of me.
Not sure about doing the same to a dynapro. Call wilwood tech line and ask. They were super cool about helping me with what I needed.
