I plan to buy the rear soft brake pads from Postons, but I would also like to buy some stronger drum brake cylinders. A friend of mine said that you can put S-10 cylinders on for a strong hold. Is this true, has anyone else heard this, if so what years were the best/strongest for a GN.
thanks for any advise
Yes...part numbers are on the Part Number section of the web site.
Also, instructions on how to install them (and a line lock, which you will need with that mod) are in the BRAKES section of the Technical Articles.
Save some dough and go to the local auto parts store and buy 2 sets of the cheapest shoes (softest usually) you can get. Then just use the longer shoes from the two sets. Same thing for less than 20 bucks. The S-10 cylinders are from a manual brake system. Check the website for the proper part number.
The s-10 and any G-boy cars are the same, front and rear brakes.. kinda neat .. the rear cylinders are about 15 bucks Canadian and the rear shoes i got for about 15 bucks too (I own a muffler shop, get parts cheap :P)
