Do you want to save a couple of $? Is this a cranked up build? How are you planning to to attach the LS1 brakes to the axle?
By cranked up, I mean 600+hp.
no not cranked up ... cam headers tbi 350 and 700r4) just doin c6 fronts and ls1 rears just up grading the car for bigger 17/18" or 18/19" wheel set plus they work better an look better then drums
1st, drums work fine with sub 400 hp. 2nd, if you are going to weld on brackets for the LS1 brakes, then can get by with junkyard 2wd S10 axles and weld your brackets on in the appropriate locations. The S10 axles are approx 3/16-1/4” longer but will easily ride in the stock wheel bearing location. If budget is not a concern, then stop with using a 7.5” housing. 3rd, stock master cylinder is going to need to be replaced.
What year car are you building?
YEA JUST DONT WANT TO LOOK AT DUM BRAKES .. BUILDING A 80 MALIBU AND FOR THE BRAKES I HAVE THE FULL BACKING PLATE SETUP FROM CAMARO INCLUDING THE PARKING BRAKE CABLES IF IT WASNT FOR THE DAM CENTER PIN BEING A PITA. IT WOULD HAVE ALREADY BEEN INSTALLED
FLANGE CUT TO SQUARE AND HOLES DRILLED FOR BACKING PLATES..
THUS ASKING AROUND FOR AXLE ADVISE AND LOOKING INTO DIFF ISSUES AND AXLE REMOVAL ISSUES ON THE FORUM IS ALL.
DONT HAVE MONEY MONEY FOR REAL POWER
FRONTS ARE ALREADY C6 SWAPPED JUST NEED WHEEL STUDS .
