Re: disc brake swap

Did the ABS bleed about 5 times yesturday and now I have a rock solid and pretty dang high pedal. It stops pretty good but I can tell now that the master cylinder I am using is for a hydroboost setup. It takes a lot of pedal effort to really make it whoa in a hurry but thats not all bad. I'm working with my tuning to try and get as much vacuum as possible on closed throttle for more assist but I see hydroboost at some point in the future. That or to get me by I may go ahead and get drilled and slotted front rotors and the larger C2500 calipers.

Re: disc brake swap

Anyone know if the 2003 Caddy Truck front calipers would work on my 98 Hoe?

Thanks

Re: disc brake swap

Take a trip to local parts store and compare them side by side....
