This is how I mounted my master cylinder & attached to the brake lever.





I just attched the brake switch to the original point on the lever.

It was a JMC arm & it was very tight for the wider wheel as it was manufactured for a standard LC wheel.
Had to machine the caliper hanger & sprocket carrier to suit.
