2bfast Posted August 11, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 11, 2010 DAAAAAAMMMMMMMM! Those look great and thanks for the info on how to do them but I have just one question. How long did each caliper take? I did it during the winter months as I dont drive the truck during the winter or any weather for that matter. So I just did it here and there when I had free time. I couldnt tell ya how long it would take if you sat down from start to finish. The hardest part is taking off all the high spots from the factory cast. Once you get those down you can start the wet sand process and its all down hill from there. That winter I also did a few other things: a/c accumulator and lines, fuel crossover line. This is an OLD picture as I didnt even have my headers on yet. Its the only good pic of have of this. Also did my driveshaft during the 1st converter swap.

And you are correct, if I was to remove everything I would have to have the system evacuated and recharged. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
