im talking abut the one that fixes the problems for 88 rear brakes and the E-brake not adjustiing them or whatever. can i just get a rebuild kit from autozone?? or do i have to get it directly from GM? if so what is the part #?

 

go to the bottom of this page. the thread asking TomP for the part #. it is in there. I just ordered that kit too, so if you wanna wait till this weekend I'll let ya know if it works or not.

Hey Breathment, the part# is 18019028. Be aware it does not have the copper crush washers in it for the brake lines so you will want to track them down before you get started. I am sorry but I do not know the size of them. The procedure you are talking about is here: https://www.thirdgen.org/techbb2/sho...rear+brake+fix

I am wanting to do the same thing so I am eager to know how well the kit works. I am considering trying the procedure that involves removing the spring from the proportioning valve first since it is cheaper but I am waiting for a guy to email me back with a detail I need cleared up.

 

I called the dealer today on that part number, they told me that it was for an 'actuator' but couldn't tell me exactly what it was because it needed to be ordered. Anyway, the quoted price was $63.68.

EDIT: this is what the part number includes

Rear Brake Caliper Actuator Kit #18019028
Each Kit Contains:
- 2 Actuator Assemblies
- All Necessary Gaskets & Seals
- 2 Brake Pad Dampening Springs

this info came from a Fiero website and it also has a copy of the TSB instuctions for repairing the brakes.

 

ya I got my kit wednesday. they too said it was an "acuator" what is, is a box inside a box with 2 pistons,springs and some washers to rebuild them. I'm installing it saturday so I'll let ya know if it works then.
