So I was able to pull the passenger mid wheel off late this afternoon and make some measurements. Please note these are not really accurate measurements, there is likely an uncertainty of 1/4".

The distance from the back of the bogie to the frame is ~5.75". The True-Track channel is made from two 2" OD U channels for a total width of 4", so that leaves 1.75" of clearance.

The spacer and caliper mounting bracket is 1.1". The caliper extends 2" beyond the mounting bracket so that is 3.1" where there is only 1.75" to the true-Track channel. So the channel would need to be removed from its present position.

I'll need to get the brakes mounted to see what I can do. I can see where the slider track version would likely clear, but I haven't seen that version on JimK's site. I'm guessing its no longer available?
