disk brake rear end E brake
The ebrake on the formula works but not all that well. What has to be done to adjust this? I think it just needs to be tightened up a little

Re: disk brake rear end E brake
that doesn't seem like it would be to hard of a swap, better brakes are always a plus. especially the way i drive
EDIT: damn the 1le kit from sphon is $850 I think the LS1 brake kit from bigbrakeupgrade.com for $669 would be a better option now

Re: disk brake rear end E brake
I did the 1LE conversion, front and rear, before the bigger kits started appearing--I also wanted the calipers to match (yes, I'm ****). You may, however, find what your looking for on Ed's web site:
