heres the deal, i bought a used 12 bolt from a guy on this board (great deal btw and a nice guy)
my questions are what all will it take to to get this to fit into my car, he took the LS1 backing plates off which required removing the press fit bearings! i ordered new bearings from Moser, he also said that it didnt have c-clips so i'm wondering does the LT1 use the eliminator blocks or does it have a backing plate of its own? I havent taken any of my stock rear apart yet to find out, and want some info b4 i get in there
the rear sits like this, housing and all internal pumpkin stuff is intact, the axles are out and i have new bearings ready to be used what else do i need if anything?

thanks alot folks
Steve

 

the LT1 rear uses a small shim in between the bearing and the axle where it presses, also the bearing needs the spacer to be pressed on with the bearing it goes last. you will use the backing plates on the stock rear end, take the rear cover off, and get the axles outs. unbolt the backing plates. the plates will go on before the bearing get pressed BTW.

 

thanks for the quik response
the spacer you speak of, is that the press fit ring? if so those came with the bearings

 

yeah that one, you will neeed the shimm too for the LT1 it has a different offset to the rotors call moser for it

 

once again thank you very much
