Thread: F-Body brake question

So I see those sleeves listed a few posts up.

Do anyone have any pictures of needs to be used or done to the f body brackets?

I hear drill tap sleeves etc..

the sleeves work just fine if you ask me. that's what im using.

why on earth would you pay 50 dollars for 15 bucks worth of hardware?

this is just the sleeves,

Quickest and cheapest place to get them:
McMaster-Carr
mcmaster.com
P/N:6679K16
Qty: 4
Price: $3.15 each


the hardware store has the rest for no more than 30 cents a bolt. why waste all that money?

$50 + s/h? I'd rather find an alternative source for the bolts and washers. Again. I never had a set of fbodys in front of me to examine

it was just a suggestion lol but for real what rotors do i need ones off a MC it makes sense the fbody ones whould have a different bolt pattern

from what i heard 06 impala calipers + brackets just bolt in. am i rite?

Too bad they are cast iron.

In reference to 06+ Impala calipers.

so you guys really seem to know what your talking about when it comes to the f body upgrade just let me know if i got this right

this kit with there pads and rotors
W Body Store 12 Inch Dual Piston Brake Kit

and these brake lines extended
Stainless Steel Brake Lines

is all i need to do the upgrade on my car?
