Question regarding dampener on 89 pbr calipers
Hi,
I can't seem to figure out how these mount onto the caliper assembly. Im talking about the weight or dampener that mounts on the e brake bracket somehow. Every way I try to mount the dampener it fits sloppily or not at all. Does anyone have a picture or can explain how these mount. I have a diagram from gm that is of little help. Thanks

Altho these are the old-style rear disc calipers, I was missing the dampener entirely on the 84 3.73/posi/disc axle assembly I just purchased. I know what you mean about the diagram, I'm not sure how they'd be mounted either. Maybe you can run without 'em?

Thanks for the info Blak92. I would still like to bolt these on though. There are two possible holes on the brackets but it seems the actual dampener rests loosely on the assembly. Any ideas?
