: 14bolt with factory disc brakes, can i use a smaller caliper? prostock3 06-07-2008, 06:54 PM ok i have a 14bolt with factory disc brakes, double piston calipers. I want to run a smaller caliper on it, does anyone know a cheap way to do this or do i have to get that disc brake conversion kit? The reason im doing this, is because im running manual brakes in my buggy i still want a brake pedal thats pushable tacoma73 06-07-2008, 07:14 PM That's not the way to remedy the problem. GM spends millions on engineering, trust them a little. :D Read Billavista's brake article, there is, I believe, a section on brake pedal ratio. What you need is more leverage, not a smaller caliper. 77k5 06-07-2008, 08:04 PM That's not the way to remedy the problem.

Umm, I'm sure he's having trouble with wheel clearance rather than braking power. Mechanos 06-07-2008, 10:09 PM ok i have a 14bolt with factory disc brakes, double piston calipers.
