Sierra disc brake conversion with handbrake

Post by Ogre4x4 »

Ive just completed a disk brake conversion for my sierra.
i used 300ZX Z31 calipers on mounts i machined up. sierra front rotors. nissan r31 wheel studs(i think). i also had to make a new handbrake lever for the calpier to run it across the diff not down the car.

ready to sit in mud and still have brakes on the way home. :)

Its yet to be engineered but it works really well. anyone know any good engineers around sydney that have dealt with suzukis.

Awesome stuff mate.. If you get it engineered OK I'd be very keen on a pair of those caliper mount brackets.
Let me know how much $$..
