Is there any special year S-10 Chevy calipers to order for the rear of my 2000Silverado ? Getting ready to mount the new 10" rims.

thx,

Probably not any help but I know for the fronts most S-10 people get the ones off a 98+ Blazer, they are dual piston.

Cool I'd like to see pics!

Do you need S10 calipers to clear your wheels ? I just installed rear Tahoe dual piston calipers and know they will clear 16" but not sure on 15" .

thx man

Yeah to clear the wheels. I have 16"
They supposedly have the brake line enter 90 degrees to the Silverado calipers, so they clear easy.

What year did you use ?? Do they come in at 90 degrees ?

I used 01 ' Tahoe / Yukon calipers , I will post a pic tomorrow and hopefully it helps , can't recall at the moment what bend is connected to the caliper .

Also I had to get different rotors as the Tahoe/Yukon/ suburban rotors are larger diameter .

98-up s-10 blazers had dual piston front calipers, and rear disc brakes. All the rest had single piston front and rear drums. Hope that helps.

Here is how the hose hooks up to my 05 Tahoe


And here is the stock truck brake hose to the Tahoe/Yukon caliper on my truck






I'm planning on running SS brake lines also .

Thankyou !

After looking at the first pic and seeing how filthy our daily driver is, I put it on the lift and cleaned and painted it , so your thread motivated me !!!

So are you going to get Tahoe calipers or S10 ?
