    Brake upgrade for my 98 K3500

    So now the 2 wheel drive bearing has a hole for the axle shaft?

    Well you're wrong. All HD 8 lug spindles (silverado) are the same. The wheel bearing is the only difference. if your thinking 1/2 ton or 6 lug then you would be right.

    2 wheel drive uses the same spindle, but a different wheel bearing. If your looking in a bone yard just get the 4x4 spindle then you won't have to buy the bearing.

    The pedal feel is ok, not great. The best thing is to keep the rear brakes adjusted and to stop hard once in awhile. Not sure why but after stopping hard the pedal and the brakes seems better. I've owned a 04 CC dullie Duramax and the pedal in that never really impressed me either. My...

    As of now I still have the Stock master. I have been thinking about doing hydroboost from the the later trucks but it work great now. I might change my mind after the Cummins is in place. I really want to try the ceramic pads next.

    Having done this upgrade I'm very happy with it. The best part about it is the panic stopping. When you need to stop you stop! Over all it's been great the next set of pads I might try a ceramic pad to see if I can make the brakes even better.

    Brake upgrade for my 98 K3500

    As of now I haven't done anything about the MC. If the 2500hd MC has a bigger bore I would change to it. I pedal is good but not right at the top where I think it should be.

    You could send your spindles to me and I'll do it for you $$$$$ :biggrinjester:

    Brake upgrade for my 98 K3500

    The way I did it was 1/2 air drill turning very slow. Cutting oil helped. It did take a few hours to do all four holes. A drill press would be better with a jig but I didn't want to spend all the time building one for just two spindles. The tapered reamer centers it self also so I wasn't...

    Brake upgrade for my 98 K3500

    Ok On my 98 the ABS wires plugged right in to the 2500hd sensor. I have not put the fuse in to see if will work. I'll find the link to the ream I bought. http://www.speedwaymotors.com/AFCO-Tapered-Ball-Joint-Reamer-10-Degree,23749.html Yes this what I did for the tierod adapter. Edit...

    Brake upgrade for my 98 K3500

    It's really wasn't that hard. You'll need a 10* reamer. The ball joint in the older trucks 88-2000 are bigger then the newer 2500HD trucks. I reamed the ball joint hole until the ball joint from my 98 fit in the spindle from the 2500hd to the same depth (top ball joint). The lower you have...
