Would have been more complicated with the master cylinder and lines anyway...

Nothing to update right now, nothing done since before Christmas, too much going on with the family, domestic responsibilities and all.
I did manage to pick up a stock Savage rear wheel and new tire from ebay which I am going to use for now in an effort to get back on the road as soon as possible .... I NEED TO RIDE ! ! !
I will then resume trying to work out the issues with the sporty rear wheel alignment and disc brake setup.

Thanks for the pics, though in this case they don't help me. The rear caliper I have is a newer one piece unit that mounts on the axle like yours, but my problem is that there is not enough room on the right side of the wheel for the caliper and it does not allow the wheel to move "right" enough to center on the frame. I have been considering one of the sprocket/disc combo's for the left side drive but of course they are much more expensive.

I don't see any way to use this particular part. I have picked up a stock rear wheel to use until I can work out the brake issue. I may try to create a brake mount bracket for a standard type caliper.
