I heard Quote "GM went back to rear drum brakes. Due to many problems with the R/Rear caliper. If you do make any conversion the Rear calipers get drowned in water, snow & mud. It's just the design of the chassis. Buy an after-market kit designed to improve on this older design used on the trucks of that era"
