Ok so I put rear disc on my truck in 2/11/2005
I originally went with D44 calipers but landed a score on caddy calipers from a junkyard for $45/pair. Used the arms, springs and got new ones from Napa with using mine as cores.. for $120 total... so I was in for $160ish for caddy calipers.
Kit I used was by Azz-kickin.com and it used chevette soft brake lines. I don't remember much else.
I did not know there is a right and left caliper... they are on and they work. E-Brake don't hold worth a damn... so with me swamping my truck, I had mud caked everywhere and still cleaning it out. Hard peanut butter mud.
well my ebrake is not really connected right... so lets make this thread an all correct...as I will edit this first post as we go...
so my view with tires on (only pic I have) and d44 calipers
left
right
went with caddy calipers
left
right
what you are left with... heavy pieces of crud
brake pics with tires off - taken 8/30/17
left
right
so my first question
Do I have the Left and Right in the right spots? How do you tell? are they marked with L/R?
I figured bleeder up and springs inside so they have to be right???
2nd Q.
Is there an aftermarket ebrake bracket to hold the cable?
