So I am buttoning up my D60 swap into my jeep and I ran into a brake question. A bolt was broke off in the brake caliper bracket, so I drilled and tapped it to accept another bolt. I would ahve 2 bolts to hold the wedge on(driver side). I go to the passenger side and there is only one bolt hole for the wedge. I have searched and found only this pic. Notice it appears there is only 1 bolt hole for the wedge.
Question: Is this how a 79 D60 brake caliper bracket is supposed to look? Is a single bolt enough?

Mine only had one on either side? It only holds it from moving side to side (sliding out) so i would assume one would be sufficent.

Yup, that's correct.

The reason for two cut outs on the wedge is so one part fits both sides. No need for a left and right.
