Great content and excellent pacing to speed up the standard repairs that aren’t specific to this install.

I did the same to my 91 GMC 1500 I got the parts from , little shop manufacturing .

@hoffmanshaven says:

Awesome video!! Well done. My 1997 is bone stock. I completely rebuilt the brake system 2 years ago. The brakes ar excellent and the truck stops like it should. The 1997 has 4 wheel antilock. No sponginess. I will stick with what i got but wanted to compliment your video.

Do you still use DOT 3 or do you use DOT 4 with the new master cylinder?
Might be stupid, but better be safe than sorry

Friend, where did you get the kit I want to put on my Chevy 454 SS?

How long did you work on it

@nordiccowboy3430 says:

I like that they provide a list of off the shelf parts that make it much cheaper than the other complete name brand kits. If you breakdown on a road trip you can easily make a repair.
