14 blot questions

[MattL]

I have some questions about 14bolts.


First off. How easy is it to put disc brakes on them?
Second off .. once disc brakes are on.. can I still keep a 15 inch rim?

 

[Hickey]

Yup to both... doin mine on Tuesday.

 

[MattL]

And who told you how to do it? You will have to get off the wallet if you want e-brakes, Caddy calipers are the answer, but who needs e-brakes.

I have it on the blazer. Yep 15's without MUCH probs. Someone here sells the brackets. I did mine that way.

If you want it to pass Safety Inspection you will.

Who needs safety inspection, don't tell me there are people that actually drive their rigs on the street!!! Mine just sits in my garage and holds up the rest of the crap in there!

I know a lot of beer drinking inspection guys I drive with a wheel chuck for hills Just in case

I did the whole under the table inspection thing for years. I feel so much better knowing that it was done legal this time well sort of

next week I will be installing my rear disk brakes, and yes, I have caddy calipers, I like the fact of being able to drive to the trail, once in awhile.

A&A Mfg makes the weld on brackets for chevy calipers. They are cheap, like $6 ea. Mcnees/Racers hardware has them her in town.
HTH
