Easy going if the parts are available. But what if you have a car and not such kits are made for? You have to do all the adapters by yourself and find a disc and caliper which fits from a different car
Some of the GMs earlier and later have disk. I'm sure you could source all from a junk yard. Maybe the same with other cars. Many didn't chance the mount for the drum backing plate when move to caliper stuff.
Did you find it a pain in the ass bleeding the system. I had to unbolt from the axle reposition so the bleeder was straight up then put in correct position then rebolt to axle. How did you do it
I heard the proportioning valve is set different for disc and drum brakes vs disc and disc. Do you notice a difference in stopping normal or excessive?
Have you guys noticed a big difference in braking performance. I lifted my truck running on 35in tires. Truck is much heavier. It has a hard time stopping with current drum brakes on the rear.
With the 33 tires it stops way better then it did before just have to be careful because now it stops better then some of the other cars and no one wants to get rear ended that’s for sure
Looking into this myself. I have a low mileage 70k 2012 ltz. Why it has drum I have no idea. Only vehicle I've had i can say brakes suck! Fades worse than anything ive ever seen. Taking orig front off tomorrow for powerstop z36 kit. Ill see if it helps then do 1 or the other on back.
It should’ve been that way from the factory. Drum brakes fade. Disc brakes only fade under high performance driving conditions unless they are slotted and drilled rotors.
Some kits are more expensive but offer the e brake attachment. You kind of have to find one that suits what you want. Or keep it stock and suffer the drum brake setup.
What kit did you buy
Noticed your in phoenix too. Where did you get a longer e brake cable made?
1982 Cadillac Eldorado Rear e brake cable? For 06 Silverado?

Does anyone know where the abs plugs back into??
Am I missing something?
Did you have to add anything else or was this a direct replacement?

Where did you buy this?
What about the abs system do you just not have it in the back or would you have to add abs and reflash the ecu to add that?
Abs works great
What new brake pads in future ?
Where did you get the parts?
Es compatible para la GMC Yukon 1500
What and where did you hook the e brake up
We are going to have longer cables made to hook up and we will show that when we get the new cables
Get them cables yet?
No I haven’t yet
I am going to have to have longer cables made up as well... where are you sourcing them?@@speedyhq1538
Who uses the E break? Lol
Did you have to up grade your master cylinder?
No
It should’ve been that way from the factory. Drum brakes fade. Disc brakes only fade under high performance driving conditions unless they are slotted and drilled rotors.
i had just bought a kit for my silverado and it isn’t bleeding is it some other problem or is it the brakes ?
Did you hook up your brake lines with an actual bolt or banjo bolt lol
@@Monster0wen yes i used the banjo bolt that came in the kit also i opened some lines before it connects to the caliper and no fluid was coming out
@@omarvillalobos4876did you get it figured out? I just ordered the kit
Same mine just came in
Can someone help me with this can’t get it to bleed properly even tho I rotated the caliper
Cant help but think you did everything on the wrong side.

Impact dude
Need to get yourself a torch and heat that thing up
Lol dude. Try your break over. How long did this actually take you? Hahaha
So what happens to the e-brake?
After having new cable a little longer the e-brake works
Where does it wire to tho??? My truck has this but 0 parking brake I park on incline so I think I’m gunna convert it back
He had a broken stud lol
Worthless video. No caliper install remove, No brand.
Thanks for the view
Did you have to add anything else or was this a direct replacement?
The kit came with everything needed
