Rear End HELP
Rear End HELP
This is my first post/thread.
I have a 1992 RS 25th anniversery Camaro 5.0 thats been converted to carb. no computer in the car. and has been converted to 5 speed.
Iv had the car for 2 years and wanted to do a brake job on it.
the car came stock with iron drum rear brakes but the car has rear disk brakes on it. my car has an E brake and cable but no where on the calipers to hook them up. I need help figureing out what kind of rear end it is. both my calipers are on the back side of the rearend. havent measured the disks yet but i will if needed. the code on the rearend is 6HP C 044 2.
Im just wanting to get new brake pads and whatever else to make the E-Brake work. thx.

Re: Rear End HELP
You might want to take a picture of the calipers for identification instead of using the suffix code. are the aluminum pbr's or cast iron calipers ? or measure the axle to axle difference 4th gen is 2 inches wider on each side.

Re: Rear End HELP
Welcome to TGO, Chad.
If both calipers are on the backside, they're single-piston alum PBR calipers with 11.7" rotors (from an 89-97 car). They should have parking brake cable provisions. If not, you're missing parts. Check the following link for pics:

Re: Rear End HELP
on the rear passenger side calliper the brake fluid like hooks up at the front of the calliper closest side to the accel. both rear callipers are on the back side of the accel.
the callipers it pulls up for my car the passenger side is suppose to be on the front of the accel. atleast thats what im getting from the way the callipers are in the pics cause there a little different from mine.

Re: Rear End HELP
i wonder if the bracket is off the s10 as well. looks the same. they have the callipers with and without the bracket. be a cheap disk brake swap 70 bucks plus rotors i guess. if it bolt right up that is but its on my car so.....

Re: Rear End HELP
Maybe go to rockauto.com and select the s10 year you think and look up the rotor demensions and also do 98 camaro! I think that year had the internal e brake like mini shoes.
