I recently installed the same calipers and brakes on my Firebird. I used a clip on the brake pad that sits on interior of the caliper. I noticed that you didn’t use one.
I can’t remember if it was in the kit or not……
Brakes are always my first fix/upgrade on a new project. Everything else is second!
You have stop lol. These only had one working, so the system needed a revamp….
Sorry, but that's not the way to install the caliper and pads. You don't hang the pads over the rotor and then try to put the caliper over them. The pad to piston spring wasn't even installed. Load the pads into the caliper first including the pad to piston spring. Then slide the assembly over the rotor. There are other details that needed to be done too. Best to read the factory service manual for your car before doing this work.
With the new brake hardware in the front, what was the result of it in terms of braking? Did the brakes improve the stopping distance over stock parts?
I haven’t done any actual testing on the brakes yet. As I build the car for the road/track I’ve been restoring and replacing. The cost of just stock parts compared to performance parts was not much more money. I know the brakes work great. The old brakes were trashed and needed replaced. When I get to do some testing I will do a video on it.
I am having trouble locating a bearing dust cap (grease cap) for my 1980 camaro. Do you know where I can buy one?
I’m not sure have you looked at classic industries?
I have. The one that is called out for 70 - 81 is too small. The 79 - 81 camaros had a larger outer bearing. The dust cap is a slight bit larger than the previous year models.
I know that Amazon is known for not knowing what fits what, but when I see "It don't fit" I must ask questions. Is the link to the item on Amazon still accurate?
The normal way I do things from Amazon is I look up the parts on rock auto or cross reference the numbers between a few websites, always looking for the best price and that has the best or easiest return policy just Incase it is the wrong part or it’s damaged.
Those rotors are similar to stock size are you using stock wheels ?
They’re direct replacement. Same size and specs, calipers as well.
