It took me more time than expected because I tinkered with other items while I had the backend torn apart such as new SS brake lines and new master cylinder, etc. Setting the backlash was probably the most intense part of the project but all is done and I'm now traveling yes around 10 mph faster. Even with this minimal amout of speed increase, I'm always thinking about do I have the brakes to stop fast?
Traveling at 70+? I'd change to more modern brake such as discs.
