Re: PROJECT "Father/Son" C-20 Rolling Chassis Build

Hey John,
That looks great!
You know I told you that I ordered the weld on brackets (from ballistic fabrication) for converting the 14 bolt over to disc brakes. Well yesterday I picked up the rotors and calipers from Power Brake Exchange.

RIght on Pat, thanks....I like to add as much info/pics as possible.

Next up will be converting that rear axle to DISC BRAKES.

This is a pretty straight forward process.

Stay tuned !!

Re: PROJECT "Father/Son" C-20 Rolling Chassis Build

Back with a few more shots of the Disc Brake Conversion on Rich's 14Bolt...

The first thing was to remove those large heavy drum/hub assemblys, then the backing plates:
-
-

-

-

-

-
-
This is an INBOARD set-up:
-

-

Here are the Caliper mounts from Balistic Fab:
-

-
New Rotors:

-

Once the axles and hubs were removed...it was time to dust off the press...-

53lbs of unsprung weight is a LOT. That's a great upgrade for that truck. The brackets look well made too.

Thanks...we just came back from having the housing, and all it related parts STEAM CLEANED.

The hot-tank at the rear-end shop did not do a good job of prepping for the powder-coaters.

Pics up soon....

Hey John,
David will do the black pieces 1st starting on Monday. Followed by the rest. So the rearend should be ready for pick-up later in the week. I'm jazzed about the color scheme we finally settled on.

Hope your work now on the father-in-laws vette is coming along and he is happy.

Re: PROJECT "Father/Son" C-20 Rolling Chassis Build

AWESOME!
The frame looks just great in silver vein. Was the clear coat on? Can't tell.
The 14 bolt in gloss black will match it perfectly. Nicely complimented by the chrome tank,watts link cover & arms.
