PPS...stay away from rear disc conversion kits...
I've not seen one I like
Have my own design waiting for the right front brake components to appeal to me.
Even the OEM 1 ton dually isn't to my liking. Even though the disc is 0.125"
thicker than mine. The pads are thicker and the caliper is also designed for
a thicker pad.
Not enough of 'more' for me to make that conversion...yet
If you have the time and $$$.. a guy over at my Suburban forum went
out and spent a couple nites with his buddy (GM dealer parts manager)
I found that GMT400's had a utility version with FOUR wheel disc's
He searched for all of the part numbers and ordered everyone of them
to convert his to a GMT400 with four wheels discs
