Re: disc brake swap

My local U-Pull-It only charges me $28 for the 10 bolt rear disc calipers & backing plates. I've bought 4 rear disc sets so far. I only live about 3 miles away so I visit the yard often.

This is the 14 bolt for my 99 Burb. I used the rear brakes from a 2000 Burb 10 bolt + a 60mm spacer.



If you want rear disc on a 5 lug rear the 77-78 Caddy DeVille rear disc are a direct swap for a fullsize 5 lug truck 5x5 bolt pattern. Just use the 79 Firebird rear rotors to get the 5x4 3/4 bolt pattern which is what we did on my Son's 74 Camaro.
