    NBS brake swap on 2WD GMT400 almost complete

    The leaf spring on passenger side was broke up front and about to break in the rear, the front hanger was broken, I don't know what kept it together. When finished this truck will be very basic, no ac no heat, no ps no radio, probably a flat bed, 6.2 w/ 5 speed manual with dang good brakes hahaha

    NBS brake swap on 2WD GMT400 almost complete

    To answer your questions, first let me explain the setup and its requirements. To use the gmt800-900 brake pkg a appropriate knuckle/spindle has to be used, on a 4wd its as simple as tossing in a new knuckle, on a 2wd not so. The balljoint orientation is different than any 800-900 platform, so a...

    Floating Rotor Swap on 90 RCSB LD Brakes

    The gmt400 platform for 2wd and 4wd has a totally different style of knuckle. They can't be interchanged with each other. The control arms are totally different, ball joints are totally different. Won't work unless you refabricate the lower control arms and either modify the upper brackets or...

    Floating Rotor Swap on 90 RCSB LD Brakes

    This is a project not for the faint of heart. I have been doing this swap for approximately 1.5 weeks in the afternoon when i get home from work. It requires reworking the lower control arm to accomodate a different style of ball joint, the LCA has to be sleeved to allow the downward facing...
