Re: Camaro Caliper Brackets
 

has anyone hooked up the e-brake if so what is needed to accomplish that?

Re: Camaro Caliper Brackets
 

no one huh>?

Re: Camaro Caliper Brackets
 

Do your calipers have the factory bracket and lever for the cable? Do you have the Camaro cables?

Re: Camaro Caliper Brackets
 

still have or make brackets? lmk thanx rich

Re: Camaro Caliper Brackets
 

Yes I do still make these. PM coming your way.......

Re: Camaro Caliper Brackets
 

I am interested in a set of these. I have a wrecked 96 Z28 parts car so I should have everything I need, right, except for the rotors?

Re: Camaro Caliper Brackets
 

I replied to your PM :)

Re: Camaro Caliper Brackets
 

PM sent, I NEED a set too

Re: Camaro Caliper Brackets
 

Reply sent.....thanks

Re: Camaro Caliper Brackets
 

I am going to start including all the mounting hardware with these. This will add $8.00 to the price. So the total with shipping will be $120.00.

Re: Camaro Caliper Brackets
 

I see that PayPal finally cleared, are we good to go?

Re: Camaro Caliper Brackets
 

still wanting to get a set of these from you....unfortunately there's no budget for it for a while with everything else I'm doing.

Re: Camaro Caliper Brackets
 

I'm sorry I haven't sent you a PM yet, just been busy. Your brackets shipped out on Tuesday. I'll send you a PM with the tracking info.

Re: Camaro Caliper Brackets
 

No hurry here, I know all about tight budgets. I don't plan on going anywhere, just let me know when you're ready.

Re: Camaro Caliper Brackets
 

i think i'm ready... took a while but i want to get the ball rolling on my project again...

Re: Camaro Caliper Brackets
 

I'd like some brackets and all of the infothat comes with it. Thanks.

Got mine yesterday, thanks John

Re: Camaro Caliper Brackets
 

Good to hear.......post up some installed pics when you get them on.

Re: Camaro Caliper Brackets
 

I got mine Saturday, awesome work John, thanks again

Re: Camaro Caliper Brackets
 

Thank You for the compliment Israel....I appreciate the purchase.

Re: Camaro Caliper Brackets
 

Is there any plans in the future to maybe make some brackets for a 9"?

Re: Camaro Caliper Brackets
 

I don't have any plans for brackets specifically for a 9". If you are narrowing a 9", and you use the correct housing ends, have your axles made with the correct brake offset and the 5x5 wheel stud pattern, you can use any of my brackets.

Re: Camaro Caliper Brackets
 

I already have the housing, do you know where I can find information on the appropriate brake offset.

Re: Camaro Caliper Brackets
 

I just checked on Moser's site and they show the Impala/truck differential as having a 2.42" brake offset. I will confirm that tomorrow when I get to the shop.

Re: Camaro Caliper Brackets
 

Just so I have this right, the brake offset is measured from the housing end to the outside of the axle flange?

Re: Camaro Caliper Brackets
 

That is correct.

Re: Camaro Caliper Brackets
 

Thank you for your help and sorry for hijacking your thread!!! I will find a way to get the camaro calipers and impala rotors on the 9".

Re: Camaro Caliper Brackets
 

No worries, you're not hijacking.

Sorry I didn't get back sooner on the brake offset.....I just plain forgot last night. Anyway, the brake offset on a truck 12 bolt is 2-1/2". I measured a 5 lug 12 bolt, and it was 2-1/2". I measured a '67 6 lug 12 bolt and it was 2-5/8" on one side, but I couldn't measure the other side yet. Then I measured a 9" that I narrowed, and set up for the truck brakes, and it is at 2-1/2" also. I think that possibly the 2.42" that Moser shows on their site might be the location on the axle itself. With the pressed on bearings, the bearing sits about 1/16" (.062") outside of the housing end. This would make the brake offset right close to 2-1/2"

Here are the housing ends that I have used that I was referring to.

Re: Camaro Caliper Brackets
 

Will these work on 1/2 ton 72 4x4 for he rear brakes?

Re: Camaro Caliper Brackets
 

The 5x5" Impala SS rotors won't work on a 6x5.5" application. The ones you need are here....

Re: Camaro Caliper Brackets
 

i know i'm bringing back a super old topic in this thread (page 2, almost a year ago), but I finally got around to bolting my set up.

the 89-92 f-body calipers (which are pretty much identical to the 93-97) work just fine with these brackets and the impala 5x5 rotors. the only difference is the e-brake cable assembly is different, and which could potentially cause clearance problems on some 15" wheels, and certainly on anything smaller.

Re: Camaro Caliper Brackets
 

I didn't realize that the '89-'92 F-body calipers would work. Do they have the same style of e-brake as the '93-'97 calipers? Do you have any pics of your setup?

Re: Camaro Caliper Brackets
 

the pictures aren't the best, but the e-brake assembly is all on there. i highlighted the black e-brake cable coming off to the side - i just have it hanging free right now.

i'm not sure if the 93-97 setup is identical or not. it might be the same or similar based on the third image i attached, which was on rockauto.com for a 94 camaro rear caliper. that looks similar to what i have.

Re: Camaro Caliper Brackets
 

So is the e-brake cable coming off of the top of the calipers you are using? The '93-'97's have the cable coming off of the bottom of the caliper.

Re: Camaro Caliper Brackets
 

i guess it's possible i mounted them on the wrong sides, i think they would bolt up either way - i had one mocked up opposite that. but with the way the e-brake cables come out of the back pointing toward the center of the truck, and how stiff they are, they would be pointing right at the leaf springs and it would be hard to route them otherwise.

i might be the exception on pre-73 trucks though, because my 72 blazer is a 4x4 truck being converted to 2wd, so i have the leaf spring rear suspension and the 5 bolt axles necessary for this brake swap.

i'll get more pictures this week if you want more detail, but my key point is that the 89-92 stuff will bolt up.

Re: Camaro Caliper Brackets
 

The easiest way to tell which caliper goes on which side is the position of the bleeder.

The '93-'97 calipers have the e-brake cables going towards the center also.

Re: Camaro Caliper Brackets
 

it sounds like they're probably the exact same thing then - 89 - 97

Re: Camaro Caliper Brackets
 

I'll have to do some research on this when I get some time......
