Rear disc brakes on the cheap

[Honky Kong jr]

Most of the the time they are not setup correctly. It's a bit of a process and must be done to the book from what I understand. I don't have personal experience... but I do have a set of these in my project parts collection.
And if you have 'em use 'em... this will keep them in order but you would still need the extra maintenance of keeping them clean from off roading. Fortunately they are easy to get at.
I still want line locks and a brake at my TC... These don't count in BC I would still need the rear park brakes.

Mine work fine 4 wheel disc with hydraboost

I've messed with those Eldos in the past, the calipers just aren't very reliable. They have a tendency to seize up and the piston won't stay adjusted out, leaving squishy brakes. Same story with the '82-'88 F-body. Similar design, just a little smaller. Same problems there too.

That must be sweet. I'll be hanging those Caddy calipers on a one ton also. Juice brakes rock.

Just to point out, make sure before you start spending money and doing work that your state does not have an inspection process that requires you have E-brakes on the wheel. From what I have seen I am thinking Pennsylvania has a road worthiness test and that might be on the check list.
