Anyone use L and R Backing Plates for LS1 Conversion on 2nd Gen F-Body?

[ryeguy2006a]

I just got a complete brake kit from an LS1 F-body and I was reading that with the staggered shocks on the 2nd gen F-bodies that I would need to run two left side backing plates. I am no completely opposed to doing it this way, mostly because it sounds like it is the only way. I just don't like the idea of the brakes not being symmetrical. Has anyone used a Left and Right side assembly on a 2nd gen F-body with success? If you have done this please post pictures or give me a link.



I have also heard that some people have relocated their factory shock to accommodate this modification, but have been advised against this.

Thanks,
Ryan
