So the carrier will be the just a bit bigger than the above widths - that is the only difference .

I am sure someone will measure one and post up.

reading what you've written mike, you seem to be suggesting that the 2wd caliper will fit over the 4wd disc with a 4wd bracket
it won't mate, not when you have to put pads in there as well

i've got a spare one at home somewhere i'll measure up to give you dimensions if they are needed
