Rear Disc Brake Conversion, Yes, Another Rear Dics Brake Question Options

[SilverCell94]

sup guys,

here is another rear dics brake conversion question:

for the e-brake cable do i need all 3 cables (center, left and right)? or do i just need the back 2 right and left cables?

now just to double check, are these the parts i need to complete the swap?

-left and right rotors
-left and right caliphers
-e-brake cable
-brake lines

now, i was reading the "how-to" article and it states that i need internal brake components, can some please be more detailed about the parts needed. also, the backplates, anyone have a pic of them??


thanks

The spindle, aka knuckle or axle carrier, is the same on those models not carrying the GT4 suspension, whether disc or drum on the rear.

I've got rear drums, and this suspension setup, including the spindle and hub,is identical to what's on my car.

I've seen the swap done between different years of the same generation and between fifth and sixth generations. Neither time was the knuckle necessary.

The hub is what holds the brakes to the knuckle. I think in the how-to posted on this board, he's referring to the spindle but actually means the hub.

When I said pick up just the parts, I meant grab the assembly minus the knuckle and hub, both of which are heavy as hell to ship and not necessary. The hub and knuckle/spindle are just what hold the parts together.
