Fitment & Compatibility
For the listed 1971–1991 GM six-lug 4x4 rear applications, this 12.19-inch FDLI conversion adds electric parking brakes. K-series pickups and Suburbans, Blazer/K5 Blazer and Jimmy each have their own year qualifications. Check the actual housing flange and 2.46-inch offset, particularly if the axle has been changed.
The rear axle must provide the documented 3.55-inch register and 6 x 5.5-inch stud pattern. DS1674 limits flange diameter to 7.05 inches with a 0.050-inch x 45-degree chamfer. Hydraulic hoses/fittings are additional items; allow room for the separate electric calipers and route the supplied parking-brake wiring according to the manual.
Confirm the applicable vehicle entry and all numbered notes in the fitment table below.
The electric parking brake is for stationary parking, not an emergency-stop brake. Applying it while the vehicle is moving can lock the rear wheels and cause a skid. Follow the wiring and holding-test procedures in the manufacturer’s instructions.
