Looking pretty good.....

Definetly need some awesome brakes to stop that beast.

What kit did you buy? as I have to do my four wheel disc ASAP as my truck has way too much power and a fast driver for the factory new brake system to stop it...It is ok if just cruising but if I get on it takes a little more road to stop.

Al, I used the same kit that I put on the Suburban, it's the CPP 13" front (with modular spindles) and their 12" rear setup. I am using their MCPV-1 master cylinder also.

big_al_71 · 10-03-2010, 04:34 PM

Thanks rob....I wonder If I would still be able to use my spindles as I have the ones from ECE?

I think they have a kit that will work with the stock spindle setup but I'm not 100% sure. Call Jeff at CPP and I'm sure he can explain the differences.

djracer · 10-03-2010, 08:57 PM

Looking good brother. I am coming to Pensacola Friday night. I might come to cruisin the coast next Saturday for the day.

Robb I should get to Pensacloa about 9PM on Friday.

ksbrktracer · 10-07-2010, 09:49 PM

Rob
Have you driven your truck since you did the brakes ? What's your opinion of the modular spindle ? Any mods that you had to do to use them ? Did they (the spindles ) change the wheel centerline any ? Any other thoughts .... I am looking into spindles and brake options for my 68 swb that I am building .
Appreciate it as always !

I still have to put the front spindles on (this weekend) and re-run my new lines when they show up. So it will probably be some time next week.... I did get my rear end cover today,

It's Lookin good Rob .... Be sure and post up with some thoughts and results when you get that far ..!

jwalk · 10-07-2010, 10:56 PM

I bet you did consider it.... That cover is sweet! Those bolts/nuts they push on the carrier right? Not the actual carrier, but you know what I'm talking about.... Does the track bar clear?
