Has anyone here used rear disk brakes from a 2002 Camaro on a 69? I thought I read something about this swap a while back and bought a complete 02 disk brake rear end and am trying to figure out how to proceed. Thanks for any info or links.

Yes, it has been done.

Here's a sampling of threads for you to review:

If memory serves, you have to put a 1/4" spacer behind the bracket to get it to line up. Search the Suspension forum for "LS1" to see 200 hits that talk about some manner of 98-02 Camaro brakes (some front, some rear)
