Re: 1990 Suburban LQ4/4L80E/D60/14Bolt swap

Small progress on the burb last night...

Rear end finished bolting up spindles and hubs cleaned and ready to go on, just waiting on brakes.

When i picked up the rear axle it had no name disc brake brackets on it running 80s k20 front brakes so thats the setup that stayed, total parts cost for brand new calipers, rotors and good pad set ~$140 (much better than price for fronts)

Downside to this setup is loss of park brake but that will be addressed at a later date, at this point it looks like the answer is transfer case brake. Curious if anyone has any experience with running one on their rigs
