    Turning the Snow Cruiser into a Snow Bruiser

    Thats not to say that the ElDorado design is not the best. I had thought of using the Pontiac/Buick calipers but never got around to doing the research if it would work for such a heavy truck.

    Turning the Snow Cruiser into a Snow Bruiser

    Yes as the pads wear that would increase my distance and I would be back to step 1. But the calipers are supposed to sense and adjust as it goes to maintain the set distance. My problem was the calipers never adjusted or actuated correctly from the start due to the large gap so they never set...

    Turning the Snow Cruiser into a Snow Bruiser

    One thing I found on the El Dorado calipers that may not have been pointed out. The pad to rotor distance was excessive to the point I was off by .030 and the rear brakes would not engage correctly. I also was having trouble getting the park brake to work properly. So I bleed the system again...

    Its a super easy setup and has plenty of adjustment for the parking brake. Just make sure the cable ends match the calipers

    Turning the Snow Cruiser into a Snow Bruiser

    Sure can! I pulled the yota cable back through the housing and cut liner to leave enough room to actuate the brake then left extra on both ends for later adjustment. I would have liked the crimp style but to adjust those doesn't make it easier later.

    Will update this further once I wrap everything up but so far it's looking good and running good just doing final touch up and shake down so it can go home and start making some memories for Mark and his daughters!!

    Turning the Snow Cruiser into a Snow Bruiser

    So here is a comparison pic right before I went on a test drive. The Snow Bruiser will ride on new 35's and black steelies. Mine is SOA on 4" springs and 38.5's. It also has an 6.0 LQ4 so when Mark arrives will let him drive both and then decide if he wants his back or needs to add the cam...

    and here's one with the dash installed and the truck running. The check engine light is on due to a misfire on #6 which cleared after break in.

    Here is a shot of the exhaust with the new crossmember. It is running a 2-1 Flowmaster with Hi-Pro cats I had the original modified X-member in there but it didn't give me enough room for the exhaust so out it went.
