Description

For many of the people who convert from drum brakes to disc brakes, a parking brake is not needed. However, if you do a conversion with one of our kits and then decide later to add an emergency brake, this kit is what you need.

The kit features:

  • Calipers with a clever cable operated mechanism to actuate the brakes. The calipers should work just fine with your OEM parking brake cable.
  • Proven parking brake design is based off of 1976-1978 Cadillac Eldorado calipers (no longer in production) which allowed the parking brake to be set with a standard cable.
  • The mounting dimensions of these calipers are exactly the same as the JB6/JB7 brake calipers used in almost all of our kits — these calipers will mount on any brackets that accommodate the JB6/JB7 caliper
  • You can add substitute these calipers into most of our disc brake conversion kits, or order them separately here.

Whether you need a parking brake for inspection or for piece of mind, this kit works great.

This kit includes:

  • Two (2) brand new calipers with parking brake mechanism
  • Semi-metallic or Ceramic brake pads (Fees apply for upgrade to ceramic)
  • Levers, springs, and hardware (the springs go between the levers)
  • Banjo bolts and copper washers

This kit does not include:

  • The parking brake cables that run from the brake to the pedal or hand lever
  • Brake fluid
