Drivers side is 98% done. Still waiting on the correct bracket and another ebrake cable for the pass-side. BTW both cables are the same P/N even though NAPA calls out a driver and passenger side... The P/N I used is 94724 for both.

ebrake cable routing; the length is perfect for this configuration:

I'll add another clamp further forward on the trailing arm:

I need to get some new retainer clips, but I think the OE style will work perfectly here:

Looking damn good I see your getting the rain too... How much block do you have in the rear..

Re: Joined the Short Wheelbase Club *69 Tahoe Project*
 

This picture looks cool. I so much want to dislike big wheels but you guys sure make them look good.

Coming along nicely Frizzle!

Frizzle,

I just realized that's the same tire I'm running, different size though (275/45x20).

Have you been able to put many miles on them yet? Just curious what you think.

They were recommended by Jim at the TireRack so I figured they'd be good.

Re: Joined the Short Wheelbase Club *69 Tahoe Project*
 

Not many miles on them yet but so far so good. Low road noise. There are pretty well rated in all the reviews.

Yoko Parada Spec-X on my Blazer. Nothing but good for me...

Re: Joined the Short Wheelbase Club *69 Tahoe Project*
 

I am also running the Parada Spec X great tires. I have nothing but good things to say about Yoko's I run them on my 4 banger, and my Tahoe as well.

Re: Joined the Short Wheelbase Club *69 Tahoe Project*
 

Looking good! Heck with as small as those brakes look I bet you will be able to change pads with out removing the rim:lol:

Lol. Looks good, I LOVE big wheels:D

Re: Joined the Short Wheelbase Club *69 Tahoe Project*
 

Sounds like good recommendations to me.

I CAN'T WAIT TO GET MY TRUCK TOGETHER!!!!

Re: Joined the Short Wheelbase Club *69 Tahoe Project*
 

FF, maybe I missed it, but how are you connecting the caliper to the brake lines? Is it a rubber line or a hard line? Thanks,

Re: Joined the Short Wheelbase Club *69 Tahoe Project*
 

Just rerouted the OE hardline and used the thread adapters supplied in glock's bracket kit:

Re: Joined the Short Wheelbase Club *69 Tahoe Project*
 

Thanks, I was just making sure. All my other cars that had rear discs used a rubber line to go from the caliper to the axle. Since it uses a hard line, I'm assuming that part of the caliper doesn't move.

Re: Joined the Short Wheelbase Club *69 Tahoe Project*
 

From that picture, that part of the caliper does move. I'd recommend getting some rubber or braided hose in there. It's a very small movement and might be ok, but you'd hate to work harden the steel and get a crack...

Re: Joined the Short Wheelbase Club *69 Tahoe Project*
 

Good call guys.

Re: Joined the Short Wheelbase Club *69 Tahoe Project*
 

W3rd. That's a floater...

Re: Joined the Short Wheelbase Club *69 Tahoe Project*
 

I've been trying to get the pics on page 1 and 2 for days now and all I get are red xs. Is any one else having the same problem? I can see the recent ones just not the earlier shots. Any one have a suggestion on how I can remedey this? Thanks, Michael

Re: Joined the Short Wheelbase Club *69 Tahoe Project*
 

Michael,

I'm good but there are about 50 pics on the first page alone.

Maybe your browser is timing out? Maybe a Ctrl/F5 will help or clear your temp files and try again.

Dunno. Might be worth a try.

Here's the link to the photobucket account for the Burb. See subfolders on the left: http://s6.photobucket.com/albums/y23...69%20Suburban/

Let's see, are you the one with the orange sweat shirt and matching hair?

I pictured you looking a bit older than that. :lol:

Re: Joined the Short Wheelbase Club *69 Tahoe Project*
 

Thanks for the link, Mike. I can see clearly, now.....

Re: Joined the Short Wheelbase Club *69 Tahoe Project*
 

The name Frizzle Fry puts him at around 30-ish if I had to guess!

Re: Joined the Short Wheelbase Club *69 Tahoe Project*
 

BAM! I just checked the profile, and I was right! I'm guessing you were jamming to Primus in high school too!;)

Re: Joined the Short Wheelbase Club *69 Tahoe Project*
 

Actually that is a cloned version of me. I duplicated myself for those jobs where you need an extra hand. You know the saying; if you want something done right... :lol:
yes sir! yes sir! I don't like your per-son-ality... :metal:

Re: Joined the Short Wheelbase Club *69 Tahoe Project*
 

FF, just wondering what you figured out for the rear brake hoses?
