Re: Rear Z06 Caliper Install
Shims worked as advertised. Thanks. I emailed Tray and suggested he at least notify people that this may be necessary. Better yet, maybe include an extra set of shims as part of the adapters. He indicated that SS had also run into this but rarely. I imagine they don't install ABS in the C4 chassis mods they do.
Once I had done this, I was now able to mount the rear calipers. And what great timing because the Lokar universal cables and clevis' were delivered yesterday. So fitting those will be next. Got them from Amazon. I thought I would try adjusting the star gear for the eBrake while I had the bearing carriers off the car but they seemed to be adjusted close enough. Tray recommended that any adjustment be done using the cables rather than the star gear. Will also be replacing pads on front calipers with ceramics to match rears.
