D52 Caliper Rear Disc Brake Brackets

[Captainfab]

No I do not have a powder coated set of D52 brackets. I do not have a set in bare steel yet. I am still waiting on some spacers to be cut. I was expecting them today, but they were not with the order I picked up this morning. Hopefully Monday or Tuesday. Then the powder coating will take a week to have done. When ever I have had a set powder coated in advance, they just sit here for a couple months.

Going to order a set here soon, does anyone have a set of the eldorado parking brake calipers set up and operational? What did you use for cables and lets see the final setup. Thanks

[Captainfab]

There is not going to be one set of cables that work for all applications. It will depend on what year truck you have and whether is is a shortbed or longbed, Chevy or GMC, etc.

Idid the conversion using these brackets and the brake booster adapter and now I can't figure out what to do about the pushrod.
The one on my 63 isn't long enough and when I adjust it all the way out it doesn't allow the master cylinder to close all the way which causes my brakes to drag and eventually lock up after about 6 miles.
Any suggestions?

[crakarjax]

Yeah you need to adjust your pushrod so that there is *no* force on the booster when the brake pedal is at rest. I like to adjust mine so they are just barely contacting the MC. Also, there might be some adjustment at the booster to MC junction.

Are you still making the rear brake brackets?

First off, great work Captain! I’ve had my 85 C-10 apart for about 6 months trying to find the DIY parts to put disc brakes on the rear. I tried the S-10 4x4 backing plates that MANY people say will fit.....but they don’t. I was gonna go the Impala rotor and custom bracket route but the rotor doesn’t fit completely down onto the axles due to the tiny lip. I wanted something that I could put together that worked without having to machine any parts. My buddy ordered some brackets for his 68 from you for the Impala rotor setup and is gonna have his axles machined. The quality and fit of your brackets sold me.
I’m gonna go the Astro route however because the rotors actually fit properly. I’ll be ordering those brackets soon.
My question today is about the master, is it a must to change it from stock to disc/disc? Also, has anyone used the 83+ year corvette mc? Does it fit without mods? I’m new to this forum stuff so if this is the wrong place for that question I apologize. Anyway, thanks guys.

Even though some have run a disc/drum master with 4 wheel discs I always recommend upgrading to a disc/disc master and prop valve. Or at least an adjustable valve in the rear line. I do not have any experience with the '83 Corvette master, but it should bolt up and work fine as long as the bore in the back of the piston is the same as your original master.

Know of parking brake cable I can use for rear d154 wilwood brake kit. I had rear drums and removed them with the short cable for rear half. These wilwood brakes require uses of non factory clevis. Have a lwb leaf.
