rear disk brake kit ..LT1 version .. MAKE OFFER !!!

COMPLETE kit to convert your drum brake system to DISK BRAKES on the rear of a 1993up GM F-body , Camaro . Firebird , Z28 , Trans Am , Formula and more .. it will also bolt right onto an earlier F-body ..back to 1982 if it has the old 10" disks . These are from a 1994 and are the proper setup for 1993-1997 LT1 powered cars . They are in GOOD shape and were working fine , till I blew the ring and pinion gears apart in that rear . The backing plates are still on the rear end housing , your more then welcome to take the WHOLE housing , but shipping it won't be cheap :\ .... It's got a good posi chunk and more !!

pictures and details can be found here ...

Any idea on if it is possible to swap those onto my 92 Astro Van? I was thinking about this the other day since it has a 7.5 rear and drums....

hey ...

won't work .. astros have a 5 on 5 lug pattern .. not to mention the backing plate is probably complete wrong ... I'm a BIG astro fan , I'm on my 8th one ... since the came out with the EXT versions . they kept getting worse and worse ... the 04s FINALLY have rear disks, good ole chevy .. lets make the last one the best one !!! I've heard 05 is the last year for it too

thanx

Yeah, I love my astro as well. I have almost 170k on my 92 astro AWD EXT! I have seen astros with well over 200k on the stock TBI 4.3. I just would love to put sme better brakes on the back, the drums drive me nuts..LOL. My drums are out of round and it jerks real bad when slowing down.

Hey ...

I only had one astro that didn't go over 200k !!! It was my 1996 AWD .. the front wheel bearings started to hummmm ... they are ONLY used on the astro so of course they were $795 EACH FROM THE DEALER ONLY !!! needless to say , after the radio code BS , the rear AC , and the front hubs , it was cheaper to trade it in !!! I've got a 2000 now , my wife gets to enjoy that !!

Yeah, I replaced one of the front hubs a few months ago...$375 from Autozone. I also have removed the front DS since it went bad and I did not want to spend the $475 (at the time) for a new one. I have ben talking to the wife about getting a newer one, but she loves our TrailBlazer too much to give it up I think.

hey ...

I know what it's like ... atleast you can get a cheaper hub now , $400 is still outragous though !! considering they use the SAME hub on other trucks with a different bolt pattern ... oh well ..

thanx
