I enjoyed the video . I going to repeat what I seen on those nylock buts . I would only use them one time . As I seen them back off and then bit you in the butt . I really prefer the double locking nuts and thr metal washer that goes between them . I just installed a hydroboost on my 95 that had vacuum. A lot more brakes now as it sure needed it . When my rear Brakes are used up I give this a try . I also don't care for the e brakes . Most will scoff at the idea but I use a micro lock on my front brakes . Work good for me . I would not want to set them up for long periods of time but they will hold
Were those dorman studs longer than stock? Looks like yours were 2 11/32 " and the stock suggested was 2 1/8" ... don't know if it really matters though
No, I bought a kit from lugnut 4x4, you have to cut the bracket that holds on the drum shoes and weld on a new bracket for the calipers, I wish the directions were more clear and included some pictures, but I bought this kit a while ago, so they might have better directions by now.
Great walk through! Thanks for the video! I'm currrently swapping to a dana 60 rear on my 90 w150. Naturally, i'm interested in upgrading to discs in the process. Your video explained a LOT for what i'm getting into! You advised a larger bore master cylinder; would i be ok running my stock one until I get around to swapping that out as well? (I understand the difference in plunger volume) Would the brake pedal travel be my only issue?
I tired it without the new master cylinder just to test it out and i couldn't really tell the difference between the small and big bore cylinder so I wouldn't bother. And thank you very much!
@@Ran9erJo Thanks for testing it out, both ways! That'll save me a couple bucks! I'm sorry to hear the new master cylinder you bought, didnt make very much of a difference.
@@Ran9erJo Shouldn't need it if the lines are bled the right way. Glad you did it so the rest of us know. What about the proportioning valve and resurgance valve? Really surprised he didn't send the full kit and you had to buy spacers. Are the breaks off a 79 Chevy 4x4 3/4 ton. Front or rear? I got a 1968 W200 Camper Special that never moved for decades. Dana 60. So it isn't worn hard at all. Has 4.10's in it. $100 from a Mopar guy. All said and done how much did you spend on this? I know its a lot of questions but I have a 83 RamCharger under construction.
You know you could have a pretty nice video if you made some changes, first of all tell your video guy to watch the video and he will realize he moves the camera around too fast. Have him move it around slower so we can see what you are talking about, for instance nobody saw the button you pushed to turn it off. Next time have him move the camera inside the engine compartment showing your hand on the shut off? I understand if you get enough likes utube actually sends you a check($$$) for making the video.Sweet deal, what state are you guys in?
