Re: JL-8

I was under the impression that the axle length issue mentioned by the factory was due to the fact that they were converting big car 12 bolts to jl8. Definitely double check the rear setup
Definitely take pics and post a how-to.. It'll be fun.

This is not a common swap because the vette calipers have an undeserved bad reputation. It's also a heavy and complicated swap, most folks just go PBR.

I wanted to do this swap because it is 4 wheel discs that have a large variety of choices in pad/rotor, the parts are available at any parts store anywhere and the setup is correct for the era, so it keeps the theme of the car in my opinion. Lastly, another thing that is unusual here, I wanted to keep 15" wheels! This is the only setup that doesn't have the stupid integrated lever parking brake and fits 15s
