Jim, I was putting the caliper to the rear of the spindle, per the instructions in the kit. I suppose I could have tried installing them the...
Just wanted to post a few photos of the disc brake conversion kit I had tried to use before I sent it back. I shipped it back to the seller on...
Welcome to the message boards! As Zig already told ya, pictures are a huge hit around here. If you need help posting them, I'd be glad to do it...
Yes, it does... If I go that route, mine wouldn't be used anymore than my current (2002) Silverado. I would just like to have the option of...
You're right, you did. Ignore that. I dunno that soda blasting would be aggressive enough for the really rusty stuff like the frame, wheels,...
I'd be careful of someone saying they could sand blast the sheet metal. It's likely to warp and distort from heat build up due to friction. I'd...
Several companies offer a change from the original 6-lug drum brakes to GM 5 on 4 3/4" disc brakes. I'm currently in the process of this...

Thanks Jim, I might just do that. I'll be able to tell at a glance if there's any difference. Damon
Just wondering... what did your brake booster/master cylinder come from? Thanks! Damon
Great photos! Thanks for sharing them with us, as well as your progress report. Sorry I can't be of much help with engine recommendations. I'm...
Our host's brackets appear to have the same style brackets as CPP, but I can only find the entire conversion kit and not the brackets only in an...
Thanks, Zig. I'm more sore with Speedway than CPP at this point. Speedway's kit is sent with caliper brackets made from a third party that do...
Thanks for the input, Nate. Believe it or not, one of the techs I spoke with recommended I just remove both steering stops, since "they're not...
Martinius, What did you buy from CPP that did not fit? Damon
Ok, I have a dilemma and I'd like some input from you fellas. The "bolt on" brackets from Speedway don't work properly, and their tech support...
^ Hahahahahaha!!!! Good one, Flashlight. Damon
