    93 C1500 Drum-Disc brake system bleed

    Right after I pressed to post this last message I had an idea. no Idea if it’s a good idea or not. But if I wait until morning and take all the correct measurements. would it be more beneficial to get enough properly snug hosing to come off from a 4 way adapter to reach all 4 bleeder valves and...

    93 C1500 Drum-Disc brake system bleed

    Just picked up the new brake lines for the rear & I happened to come across this handy fella. Called LiquiVac 8 quart oil changing system. It states it’s for use of all types of oils, grease, etc… But absolutely no gasoline. I added and changed around the hoses so it’ll fit right over a bleeder...

    93 C1500 Drum-Disc brake system bleed

    Good afternoon, I have a 1993 Chevy C1500 2wd ext cab 5.7L. I did the brake conversion to remove factory drum brakes and install disc brakes. Also I installed a new I guess to say performance style master cylinder for a couple key reasons. But I’ve never done this big of a brake fluid bleed...

    93 C1500 rear brake drum to caliper conversion help

    I added a booster, all brand new lines including stainless steel lines on this install. Figured if I’m gonna do it I may as well do it right and replace every single aspect to the complete brake system. After install I’ll replace all vacuum related hoses even though their in good shape just...

    Smart move I see where your taking your build. Do you know off hand if this place has that kit in stock or on backorder? I wasn’t able to find out so I shot them an email. If I didn’t go with the Wilwood which I’m just guessing is a single piston caliper. Would in your opinion, that single...

    93 C1500 rear brake drum to caliper conversion help

    Thank you Mr. Pink. I was not able to find a phone number to contact so I sent them an email. I couldn’t tell if that kit contains the single piston calipers and upgrading to the wilwood which would double the price. What additional installation would be needed, if any, and how many pistons...

    Greetings from Michigan, 93 C1500

    I was curious if anyone was going to notice or question my hood setup. I dont recall the model but I came across a Buick car with that reverse hood out in a salvalge yard. I used that design, but had to change it in a few different ways. But others at shows with their hoods flipped forward...

    That is awesome, I'm completely in the same mindset as your describing. Yes, i'm sick of the one wheel peel as well...;) The only difference is you seem like you show and race your truck is what I'm taking from talking with you. It'll always be a show truck for me, but I absolutely want to add...
