The axle bearing flange bolt pattern is the same for the 10, 12 and (I think), 8.5"er..

Please correct me if I'm wrong here guys??

PDQ, I understand it the same way too. I do know from other posts that you need two right hand brakets for them to work or they'll hit the shocks. You can rob the brakes from a gen4 Camaro/Firebird and get the two brakets and bolt them up. I also heard of e-brake cable issues.


Do a search in brakes & suspension for help/answers.

Salvage yard or dealer are two places I can think of. You'll need two rights. Gen4 (99-02) Camaro.

Get cat's from both these places before you spring for parts...

and

They might have just what you need? And I figure the price's should be very fair, imho
