I decided to order these calipers from Callahan, they do include the bracket and 'dampener.' Will be awhile before I install, but they look good. The dampener is quite large... bigger than it looks in the photo...

NOOB Question: What is that "Dampener" for?

This is my first Chevy and I'm still learning.....A LOT.

All I know is that it's called a "vibration dampener."

For all you folks that have installed this kit, did you try it with and without the dampener? Wondering if it's critical to the braking performance?

Thx,

I did not try it without dampeners. My calipers came with them installed.

Thanks, just curious. No Chevy brake engineers from the 1990s on the forum... haha. Getting ready to do my conversion. Appreciate those that have done the swap showing how they did the E-brake cabling. That was one of my worries.
