Hello all,
This is my first technical question in your community here... you already helped my a lot before, so I decided to join this cool place here
First what I am working on:
My '88 Chevy G20 Van (350cui, TH700R4) will get a full rebuild. In the moment there is a naked body waiting in the barn to get some paint... but that's the easy part...
Here comes the more difficult stuff:
I will upgrade the suspension with poly bushings, Koni shocks and am additional rear sway bar. I also want to get bigger brakes... because the stock ones are quite rubbish if you go over 100mph on the German highway ;)
The plan is to use Classic Performances Big Brake Kit with 2" drop spindles for 1973-87 Chevy trucks. Due to my information the suspension is the same as on the Vans... but that is not confirmed...
Do any of you guys have some experience with the drop spindles/ big brake kit/ rear disc conversion?
I could not find proper information for this at the Classic Performance hotline or in any internet community, so any help is appreciated... I don't want to waste a lot of money to get the parts shipped to Germany and get mad if it doesn't work...
Thanks,
Stefan
EDIT: Here the link to that brake kit
