Hey guys , im in the process now of Fabing up a (somewhat ) big brake kit for the Front of my 2dr 4wd Tahoe..
IN the middle of this im now itching for a Rear Disc BReak...

What Would you guys Pay for a FULL BOLT ON ( no WELDING) , Rear disc conversion for our Trucks.. It will be a mix of Used and New Parts ( rotors , pads, NEW)

Im a New/Used Auto Parts Seller and currently sell Rear Disc and a Few other Conversions for them for S-10 and Other Gm Vehicles ..So one for our Trucks wont be nothing new for me ...


If you Guys Could give YOur Honest Opinions on this it would greatly be appreciated...

So, we are looking at new, quality rotors and pads. Caliper will be used and would need the parking brake. Brackets would have to be machined....$400?

Haks:
YEs,,, Calipers would be Used or Reman , regardless would have 45 days warranty on them ....
The parking brake is the issue. Most kits out there (99.8%) use Old School Eldorado Calipers, Issue is that they were not GOOD to start off with ... Im trying to figure out alternative to them.

Atomic:
Ginnie PIg would be for me , if they come out WORTH IT , I would sell them ...
By worth it I meen Price and Issue to fab up , when it comes down to it is it just Cheaper or BEtter to swap out to a Never Disc Rear end.

depends on what your offering, there are plenty of kits available so i guess you would have to be pretty competitive.

I myself would ditch the parking brake anyways, but the average person might not go for that.
