    If I were to use the gtp rear caliper with the gxp caliper bracket would that work so I don't have to frig around with the hubs and e-brake cable?

    no.

    your caliper is setup for a solid rotor.

    the GXP is setup for a vented rotor.

    maybe two to three times the thickness.

    Ah, I didn't think about the spacing in between for the rotor and pads. Guess I'll have no choice to do it the right way.
