You'll also need the front brakes, master cylinder, and either the factory proportioning valve or an aftermarket adjustable one. With the rear ends of the Rampages being so light, there may be a tendency for the rear brakes to lock up.
Great, THANKS!!
It'd be nice if my Bro:
Got his computer fixed or get a new one:banghead:
Join TM so he could answer in some threads like this:)
he is dealing with it right now (as in today) His set up is from a LeBaron GTC with the big brakes. Fronts are done and it stops 1000% better, for the rears he is trying to incorporate that load leveling/brake bias adjustment valve inot the new set up. His feeling is that he can do away with the spring loaded portion and fab up an adjuster so he can vary the postion of the piston/valve for increased (or decreased rear bias)
He has been messing with it most of the week but should have it dialed today.
BTW his Weber carb showed up yesterday, we'll see if it runs way better or not:thumb:
you might not have to or be able to swap the hole rear .on my shadow i put in 86 cs tona disc in the rear an wasnt able to swap the hole thing .the bushings that are bolted into the floor (trailing arms?)were differnt so i had to swap the spindles and proportiong valve out and use my axel . i didnt do the master cause i didnt have one but it still stops fine just my 2cents.but everyone else has mentioned everything you need to do it ,good luck
I was already swapping in the bigger brakes and 5 lug hubs from an 86 SC, so the rear disks should be a nice addition. Thanks for the replys guys.
