Need info on S10 big brake kit

[BK2LIFE]

There are several kits available, and many adapters to mount corvette and other styles of calipers/rotors to these trucks.

I have used the search feature and didn’t find any s10s on this page.


Does anyone have any real world experience with these trucks/chassis and know what works, and what is just spending too much money on?


6 pot 14 inch Wilwoods up front seem to be too much brake for such a small vehicle. Any thoughts?

Thanks for any thoughts

What year S10? What wheels are you going to run? What is your budget? No magic answer but this might help you.

What year S10?

84-03 are the same, there is difference in hub in 2000+ but, that’s a non-issue here as both spindles are very easily obtainable.

What wheels are you going to run?

18+

What is your budget?

None.

I'm running C6 Z06 brakes on mine.
Got the kit from Kore3... they make nice kits & have good customer service.

You can also swap to Blazer spindles that use a unit bearing, which may allow more wheel choices since the old style protruding hubs do not always agree with new flat centered wheels.

It's been a year now, and I've finally pulled the trigger on the Wilwood Disc Brakes 140-12837, once installed I'll report back on how the system works.

The why for this system, is it has an entire new hub assembly with 1/2-20 studs to match my rear axle. Seems like an easy, no brainer to remove the old, clean the spindles and mount up the new. Quick and simple, low down time.
