If i want to space my set's of wheels out to run at 142mm for a new frame, is it just new axle caps/spacers? how do the disc calipers line up?

I mean, do frames with 142m rear spacing still use the same inboard caliper positions? or is there some kind of caliper spacer i'll need too?

I can imagine the drive side is just a mech end stop realignment, but disc side i'm not clear on.

They are all Pro2, or Pro2 evo hubs.
Any guidance much appreciated.
Lard.

Same disc spacing, same everythink, just 3.5mm wider end caps that slot into 3.5mm recesses in the frame.
