There are many brake conversions available for '84-'87 Fieros. The grand am conversion isn't too difficult as I've completed it on my 86GT. The rears are pretty much direct bolt on, while the front requires some work at a machine shop to cut down the rotor/hub in order to mount the grand am rotors. I used 4 Front grand am rotors and calipers, and I changed the master cylinder to that of a 4x4 blazer. Visit www.fiero.nl for a wealth of Fiero information- it's pretty much the largest online Fiero community. West Coast Fiero also has a lot of information on brake conversion, and they sell complete kits.
However, from my experience they are overpriced and their shipping time takes about 3 to 5 times longer than they'll tell you through email/phone calls.
Remove the tire and wheel from your 2002 Pontiac Grand Prix. Remove the spring from the brake shoe. Remove the brake shoes. Reverse the process to install the new brakes.
i replace my rear brake shoes on 2001 dodge grand caravan and my emergency brake is still not working
A disc brake kit is used to convert an older automobile's drum brakes to disc brakes. Your 2001 Gallant already has disc brakes. It would not require the disc conversion kit. When you begin to hear your brakes squeaking it is time to take your car to the repair shop for new brake pads.
The emergency brakes are whatever your rear brake pads are.
Brake rotors or drums need to be machined or replaced. If it causes steering wheel shaking, check front brakes. If happens when applying parking brake look to rear brake problem.
There could be an issue with the anti lock brakes if it equipped with them. It could also be that the brake fluid is low or the switch for the emergency brake is broken.
To replace the brakes, lift the car on a jack, remove the tire, brake shoe and old brake pad. Next put in the new brake pads, put the brake shoe and tire back on the car, and lower the car.
Your brake rotors are warped.
You will need to remove the tire and wheel from your 1998 Pontiac Grand Am. Remove the brake assembly spring from the brake pads. The brake pads will come off. Reverse the process to install the new brake pads.
The minimum thickness of a brake rotor on a 2006 Pontiac Grand Prix is 1.25 inches. Below this point, the brakes will be less effective.
