Well the ebrake is something different, it's inside the rear rotor it has nothing to do with the capliers.
But my ebrake is going too. I want to replace those as well ;) |
shows how much i know. lol. i thought the ebrake was connected to the caliper or something like that. either way, my pads are metal on metal. so it's time to replace
|
I bought an shipped e brake shoes to Marrko a while ago. They were $95 at AutoZone and in the shape of a "C"
They have holes for the e brake cable, but IDK exactly how to hook them up. Maybe somebody can chime in :ninja: |

They are exactly like drum brakes. Have you ever done drums??? They suck tho, a real pain in the ass :cry: Edit: Alright, drums and Ebrakes arent exactly the same, But they are extremely similar and can still be a pita to do. |
i've only done drum brakes on a semi. and how are they the same...
|
Never did drums. Never wanted to.
Do you need the speical drum brake tool for the e brake job? Playing around on Rock Auto and I see that they sell the calipers and brackets as a kit, pretty cheap too :D |

No special tools or nothin. Just some needle nose pliers help out alot. |
ok is there a reason why you cant use the crossdrilled and slotted rotors from the grand ams for this conversion? or do they have to be from a malibu and what year malibu?
|
Quote:
Because the stock rotor is like 11ish inches and these are 12 inch rotors. |
ok but what year malibu will work?
|
Because the Camaro calipers are set up to work on a 12 inch rotor, not an 11 like what comes on the Alero/GA/Malibu stock.
You need 2000-2005 IMPALA rotors, not too sure where you got that Malibu rotors will work on this conversion. |
