Ok guys, here`s a question for you. At work today I changed the rear brakes on a 98 4wd blazer with discs front and rear. I know about the front brake upgrade using 2wd blazer parts but whenever someone does a rear brake upgrade, most often they use 4th gen ls1 f-body parts. Why not use the rear disc brakes from the same blazer that gives you the fronts? The park brake set-up looks like it would be an easier swap since the cables seem to have a similar orientation with the park brake unit inside the rotor, drum brake style. the caliper is aluminum so less unspring weight and the proportioning valve would be perfectly calibrated.
Has anyone tried this? Will the backplates bolt up to a 7.5 or 8.5 diff? What do you all think?
