Default recessed brake nut?

Forgive my ignorance, but is there a way to adapt a regular caliper brake to go on a fork that uses
a recessed brake nut? Seems like the existing bolt (or whatever you call it) is too long to work
this way. Thanks

See if you can buy a rear brake bolt for it - they are shorter. Mark Lee
