Default Rear caliper mount bracket replacement?
Is it possible to change the rear caliper mount bracket without having to rebuild the bearings?

yes, remove park brake, four nuts holding bearing carrier and slide carrier off and remove backing plate and caliper support. not too bad to do if all pieces come apart

I disagree. You need to press the spindle out in order to remove/replace the caliper mounting bracket.
