Default RE: rear dish brakes

Proportioning Valve (4040) (reccommended)
Brake lines
E-brake cables
Trailing Arms
Useable trailing arm bushings
Misc bolts
Rotors
Calipers that aren't seized
Brake pads w/shims
lower control arms w/useable bushings (can reuse yours)
upper control arms w/useable bushings (can reuse yours)
Compensator arms w/usable bushing (can reuse yours)
Toe arms w/usable bushings (can reuse yours)
Master cylinder, 15/16 (reccommended)
Brake booster (reccommended)
good hub w/good wheel bearings and lug studs
working bleeders

Is this coming from a car with or without ABS?

Try to get most of the parts from a non-ABS car, but some parts won't matter.
