Rear disc brake conversion Blazer
- Thread starter Chris Ziemer
- Start date
I was able to find this axle locally. Probably pick it up for a few hundred. Looks ugly. 
Will need mounts, gears, seals…probably something with those brakes.
Is this a good start?
Chevy semi-float 14 bolt corporate rear axle rear end. 4.10 gears with disk brakes. 8 lug. 2000 year model.

What's wrong with drum breaks that you feel you need to swap to disc?
Just that it’s my daily driver and I want the best brakes I can have. Certainly some nicely adjusted drums would make a good difference…
And I think I could sell this nicely done 10 bolt for a few bucks, so I don’t think I’d be out too much for the upgrade in axle and brakes…thoughts?
And wheels, and tires depending on what size wheel you have...
Drums would be cheaper for sure and they work.... I'd go with what makes you feel most comfortable.
I’ve got rear disc on my 14 bolt full floater and I’m happy with them. I say do what makes you happy, it’s your truck.
I am surprised no one has mentioned the t-case sitting next to the axle...
I agree in your situation the best approach is fixing your brakes.

Cool, I’m hearing you guys. And I’m listening because I really don’t know the best way to go. But, I’m understanding that the less drama way to go about this is to just make sure my current system is functioning as it should.
And that’s not going to cost me much at all. And I feel good about it.
I seem to be prone to some overkill.
Much appreciated.

Get what you have working and have some fun... then you can mess with the endless ways coming to you on how to spend your money, wisely or otherwise.
Alright, since ya brought it up I’ll ask about the old NP-200 or 201 or 202 - at this point it’s been too long since I kept up the differences between the grandfathers of our beloved 205.
So, is that your divorced case ?
I was reading all the post before I jumped to the transfer case pictured. NP200?
It’s an NP200, just comes with that axle. No idea on condition. Though if I had to guess by the picture….
There is a disease that you get from this site. It's MAW. Might As Well.
Is there an output yoke on the parking brake or just a flat flange holding the brake? If there is a yoke, I would like to buy it for my M715 which also has a divorced NP200.
I know the guy wants to get rid of it.

Im going through that myself. what i thought would be a simple 14 bolt 9.5 swap turned into a full overload project lol.
Yes 90GMCJim, Sac is very close. I’ll see if I can find it and check it out. Thanks
Just looked. He is in Livermore
