Hello gents

I finely decided to do the conversion for my OBS 1999 Yukon using parts I picked up from the junk yard

Sadly, my right rear wheel holder snapped from shaft Neck

So I decided to pick up the parts from the junk yard
(rear disc brakes from a 99-06 GM pickup or SUV (NBS) onto your 88-99 (OBS) truck or SUV)

Here is what I ran into:

when I removed the backing plate, I noticed that the brake base is not squared shaped

regardless of the shape on my differential as shown, wont effect the assembly/parts I picked up from the junk yard as it will require a 20mm spacer.

Obviously I would need longer bolts, so I picked up a 1/2"-20X2" bolts to cover the space added from the ZING plate spacers I made to fit the backing plate and Shaft

would anyone know if the new Nbs brake lines/e brakes for the nbs would fit the brake line/e brakes?

They should fit. If not it's an easy fix. Should replace all the lines anyway.
