I would have to believe the calipers would be different for a PM kit that allowed the factory parking brake cables to hook up. The PM kit I have sitting here in the box wouldn't be able to accomodate a parking brake function. The parking brake on the stock HD Triglide calipers rotates an arm which pushes in a plunger into the back of the piston. If you look at the HD calipers you removed and then at the PM calipers you'll see why it wouldn't work, unless there is something I'm missing.

local bike shop just installed the (new) version of stage 1 , cost about 1499.00 i believe and was told the p/m caliper is installed at the 12: o-clock position, and the original h-d caliper is installed at the 9 o-clock position with .hyd's capped.so its used strickly for emer. brake purposes. also the dist. block will bolt up to the rear stud (old version problem) .
i have the old version) and thought if i could get a pattern of the right hand caliper mount bracket.
i could make a jigg and with the two old brackets i have; i could cut & weld them together , and have a working parking brake.

I have the old version of the PM brake kit also, the new one must have just come out in late February.
