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

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! http://s6.photobucket.com/albums/y23...4029Medium.jpg |
Re: Joined the Short Wheelbase Club *69 Tahoe Project*
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. |

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.

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:

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...

Good call guys.

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. |

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.....
