| Chassis - Rear End - Brakes |
|
These are the rear 11" GM brakes that I received from RCC |
|
|
|
|
I intalled the new roter bearing hubs.
|
|
I began to work on the brakes from RCC.
|
The outboard pad was real loose so I had to remove it and do 'fine calibration' on the tabs to make it fit a little more snug.
|
| Each casting is a little different. I had to grind a small portion of the left caliper to be able to install it on the mounts, but it went in fine after this tweak. |
|
 |
 |
| The rears are a little different, you have to saw off some interfering pieces on the upright. This is a before and after picture. | |
 |
 |
| Then you have to drill and tap the mounting holes. RCC provides the tap but you have to bring your own 27/64th drill to the party. (needs a 1/2" chuck too). | |
 |
 |
| Then it basically mounts up like the front brakes. The calipers do not come painted. Be sure to use a high temperature paint (500 degree will probably do) to keep the cast from rusting and showing through wheels badly. | |
