      Dirveshaft parking brake

      I am thinking of using Howe 2 piston calipers on all 4 wheels now, but want to retain a parking brake. I have seen these in the past, but can't find on the mounts to the rear diff at the pinion. I have a chevy 12 bolt,
      anyone seen this lately!!!!

      That's the one!

      Pete Lohr built mine, for a 10-bolt, I like it but still need to get the handbrake and cable setup. Looks like it will do a great job, I had to have my pinion yoke machined on the backside for proper disk alignment. I like the pinion ebrake idea because I can switch to whatever calipers and rotors I want anytime.

      This is ironic. I was just mentioned about this in another thread today. I was thinking of doing this to my Camaro since I converted my entire interior to 2002 and 4th gen Trans Am and I eventually need a parking brake.

      Talk about ironic.. I got a letter today from a reader asking what to do since he has C-Clip eliminators (like I do)... I am going to have to contact this guy and buy one for my car as well.

      The Year One 69 Camaro was able to use some Locar parts to hook up the 4th gen parking lever to the E-brake so I know it can be done.
