Who has Dr. Diff 8 3/4 rear discs?

Thanks @dano I ordered the cables from him just now, but he said the place that makes them got shut down, so the turn around in undetermined. In the mean time, I will see what I have as far as parking brake is concerned and placed a want ad.

Im just hoping I can install everything with the motor and such in place.

Dano covered it, the cables I got from DoctorDiff just go from the caliper back to the first clip where the old cables tied into the rest of the system, so they’re only a couple feet long and utilize the stock cables back to the parking brake lever. But that’s dependent on the year.

I installed the whole rear brake conversion with my car fully assembled, I drove it into my shop, pulled the wheels, removed the old drums and installed the whole conversion including the parking brake cables. Whole thing was done in a day and right back on the road as my daily.

My install is on the last page of my build thread, although the pictures there don’t show the parking brake cables very well. I’ll see if I have any others
