    Im doing new brakes all around with some upgrades. I cant even drive my car now the brakes are so bad.

    ^ordered these with the stainless steel brake lines, ive read its a good idea to be tapped? or is that just if i got them used off an F-body car?

    It looks like ZZP includes the machined sleeves in their kit so there is no need to tap the brackets. Well it looks like ZZP included everything you need in their kit, so I would say your set.

    Though, depending on who you ask, the sleeves are not the best option. It's much better to tap the brackets for the w-body bolt.

    I will go as far as saying.....


    Using the sleeves is a STUPID idea. Tap them, or suffer the consequences.
