I am considering an electric e brake a la e-stopp http://www.estopp.com/ in conjunction with a 4 disc/reaction arm upgrade for the rear. According to the website, their system provides about 2 inches of travel and 600 lbs of force when set. Any problems with the GMC adapting to that spec?

My understanding is the upgrade will permit the e brake cabling to be routed to the rear wheel set with the appropriate calipers, though I have heard that the stock system is a stretch (literally) to get there. I would love to get rid of the e brake bar in the cockpit. Just getting rid of the dimmer switch has made a world of difference in driving comfort, as there is a natural footrest right there.

Thanks
