Two more sets gone. I have 5 sets in stock right now.

Wanted to update this and let you guys know the next batch of brackets will work with the guys who want to convert from drums to disc brakes and run 15's in the rear. So the brackets will be able to bolt up to both rear end flanges.

Awesome for us drum guys. The only problem is see is finding a brake hose to fit and if it would work with the stock master cylinder, shouldnt be too bad. Sorry if im clogging up ur thread.

Not clogging it up at all. I like the discussion for future reference. I made my own stainless steel brake lines. Super easy and they are way better than the stock rubber lines. It bolted right up to the stock metal line that runs across the rear end housing. I have an extra set of fittings and hose if anyone needs them. It takes about 10 minutes to make.

Oh yea never thought about making the lines. Any fitting sizes for future reference. Maybe post em up top. Its sad but true ive never cracked open the rear drums on my truck since i bought it new in 07 and now with 113k it might be time to upgrade.

I wonder what those shoes look like. I don't have the part numbers in front of me since they are at work but you will need a -3AN hose to female 3/8"-24 fitting to connect to the stock brake line, and a -3AN hose to 10mm banjo for the caliper end. Should be able to get fittings and the line for around $50.

I recall GMCtruck stating the stock brakes hoses work just have to drill the banjo for the bigger bolt for the new caliper.
