Question: How are you running emergency brakes with the rear GM calipers?
|
I'm running Wilwood's in the rear with the internal "hat" style parking brake. I bought a cable kit from Lokar
Lokar Performance Products (located in Knoxville, TN) that attaches to the factory front parking brake cable and splits it into two separate cables back. You can get the Lokar cables with different style ends, Wilwood uses the Ford Explorer clevis style back on the parking brake arms at the calipers. I imagine you have ran across Lokar with all of your hot rod experience, since this seems to be their gig - great folks to work with for sure!
I haven't sent you the Howe calipers, but you are welcome to them if you still want them. I was a little spooked about one of the mounting ears broken off, but I am not sure if I let one of them hit the shop floor during removal either. Your call on that bro. Give me a yell when you get back in the states and stay safe
