Thanks for the information. I dont know if i want to re-engineer the Volvo Calipers, but i  will look at the 70's Jaguar XJ12 calipers, Porsche 944 calipers and revisit the Toyota 4 Runner calipers. Preliminary review of the Toyota calipers may be a tight fit but may work as long a the mounting holes are rebushed and drilled for the 10mm bolts used on the JH. Provided this caliper would clear the upper A arm when fully turned to the stops (without major modifications) a 1/2" spacer is still needed to make it fit inside the stock wheel. Is there any recommendation for a minimum clearance between wheel and caliper?
