4 wheel disc conversion (research validation needed)

I think I may have the same issue with the driver side cable. The sheath on it is super tight and when I adjust the passenger side i have to have the adjuster nuts all the way screwed on and I can’t seem to get the passenger side to engage at all

Yup, In-line tube made me a new cable that was approx 1-1.5” longer in the sheath and the problem was resolved.

Sorry to hear about he shipping BS. I hate to say it, but this everywhere. I ranted about Jegs and their indication of when parts will ship regarding a set of MT drag radials. It was total BS and they knew it

If it doesn’t say ‘in stock’ then call the supplier if you really need it.

where have I heard this story before? your adjuster nuts are screwed all the way on (probably pretty tight) and you just can't get the passenger to engage 😵

yeah,she's the one that got away...

Since I have time to kill I’m going to keep messing with different ideas on how to make it work. Here’s what my set up looks like right now. I know it’s hooked up properly but man it really makes me scratch my head as to how it engages the passenger side when the driver side cable is that is truly the only side being pulled

Ughh, I wish I didn't know what you guys are referencing. I remember days like that from my youth.


Perhaps this is a yellow El Camino owner issue only :-/

Fun fact you can only get tech support via email now from these guys, estimated response time is 2-3 days.

64nailhead big thank you for taking the time last night to send over some great reference pictures. Just got word back from Inline that they will make a custom length cable to fix their design flaw for a small fee of $90

Does anyone have pics of the finished blazer front brake swap? Also, how well does it meet the turning stop bracket?

I have a few in my build thread when I installed them during the frame off.

No pics here, but the steering stop will most likely need some massaging. Can you say 4.5" angle grinder?
