Thinking about doing the EGR rear disc conversion on my Suburban and looking for any feedback from those that already have it? Was going to PM Tim privately but figured would ask publicly instead for more potential feedback. With the following concerns:
Is the existing master cylinder adequate with the smaller drum reservoir, my initial reaction to it is that with calipers a higher volume is needed, spoke with Glen at EGR and he said that existing MC will be fine, volume only being a concern when the Pads are really worn.
Will the current proportioning setup work well with discs all round, aren't factory discs all round more of a 50/50 bias.
Will it indeed be better than drums and an obvious tangible increase in stopping power.
Now I have a 2500 with a semi-floating rear and so am also pondering changing out to a FF rear my guess being that going from 2.5" to a 3.5" wide shoe would also show a marked improvement in braking?

maybe I got last one of their good ones, mine went in no problem, after getting it, I did feel it was overpriced for what I got, I think if doing again I'd go Slims's route and build it myself, not really rocket science.
