c5 vette brakes

[treed_cutlass]

This has nothing to do with C5 brakes, no one cares about you splitting hairs over what you said, and trying to make it seem as if you knew something you didn't.

It always sucks when you're reading through a thread trying to find technical knowledge, and you have to sift through some pissing contest.

You said that you doubted there was a problem if global west was selling a kit for the b-body spindles.
This clearly implies that you thought there was no problem, based on GW selling a kit.
You were wrong. There is a problem. No English courses needed.
It's ok that you were wrong. It's called being human. When you are wrong, it just means you need to research and learn from your mistakes. Learning is a good thing. This is how society progresses.
LET IT GO!!!

BACK TO THE TECH

I am doin the c5 brake swap and have all my parts for the front together..... Almost just a few more parts. I want to do the rears too , So how did you do your rears using the 95 Camaro brakes and what is needed to swap them in? Did you change the brake booster, valve etc etc. Are you using the 7.5in. rear?

Never mind just read the rear disc swap thread. 😳

Its rather easy, axles do need to be removed, i also baught the brackets from flynbye.com and yes they are 95 camaro brakes, i did not do anything to the brake booster or used a proportioning valve and everything works fine

What all did you use from the Camaro?

i believe their 11.5. Yeah the donor for the 95 camaro was a mission. but just remember they come from 94 to 97 camaros for the rear
