[TylerZ281500]

a thought with most conversions you use the oobs front caliper and rotors. dunno about the s10s and stuff.

Screw that.... I've ordered everything to rebuild my drums for less than $100 from RA since I never got an exact answer on which rotors to use.

Sorry I had to wake this thread up again... Just curious 2 see if anyone made any progress here..? Anyone make the swap happen yet..? Buy any parts..? If so wat parts?..? And from wat year , make, model..?
After reading through it again I got a LiL confused on which parts to get and proportioning valves and m.c.'s ...

Yea, but it needed resurrecting.
I think it was my last post in this thread that has that guy's info for the kits.
Onda phone. Haven't checked to see if that link still works.
I'm a bit OCD about brakes. They're only as good as the weakest link, and if any part or design raises doubt, the whole system is compromised. I don't like to 'have' to think about that!
More the reason that I'm leaning towards a kit from a Co. that's done some r&d with results to back their claims.
As far as building my own, I'm with you! Still scratching my head! Beginning to think maybe not. Have grown a sense of self-preservation in the last few years!

Plus I'd love to save a dime here but yea this guy can piece it all 2gether... http://www.ebay.com/itm/GM-Rear-Dis...Parts_Accessories&vxp=mtr&hash=item29fe94695b
