I've been doing some reading on improving the stopping power in my 1500 and a common thing that pops up is swapping the OEM rear brake cylinders with GM 1-ton cylinders. Has anyone here done this swap? I've read that this swap significantly improves rear and overall braking but I'm just curious to read some more testimonials. Is this a simple swap and go job or does the works need some fiddling with to make it work?
My rear drums and shoes are pretty much at their service limits and need to be replaced which I have no problem with but I'm curious about swapping these large cylinders in while I'm at it.
