This is (Part 1) of a video series where I show you how to install a rear disc brake conversion kit from SSBC on a GMT400 pick up truck. GMT400’s ran from 1988-1998. The truck in this video is a 1990 C1500 Sport.
In this video I cover the installation of the rear calipers and brake hoses. Additional information on how to disassemble the rear end brakes on this truck can be found in these videos.
