Would any one know if if a VN diff brake adapter thingy (what the brakes bolt to) if cast iron or cast steel ?? I'm asking because I want to try and mod my spare diff so it holds two calipers on each end (so 4 in total).

its steel not that I can see locking the back wheels first being a good thing unless you all ready have 2 calipers on the front notice the front calipers are twice the size of the rear.

^^ agreed.

I'd say cast steel as the ends are welded to the tubes on the diff.
