Who has access to Hallonder books?
I am doing reserach on rear disc brakes and want to see what rotors and calipers will interchange.
I'm still looking, so far this is what I found on calipers: calipers come from 79-85 El-Dorado, Riviera, and Toronado and 80-85 Seville |

Your caliper info is correct for those models. This is what Hollanders shows for rotors:
BLAZER S10/JIMMY S15 83-97 VIN model "T" (4x4) BRAVADA 91-94 BRAVADA 96 ELDORADO 79-85 ELDORADO 79-85 rotor only (Brakes, Rear) ISUZU HOMBRE 98-99 4x4 RIVIERA 79-85 RIVIERA 79-85 rotor only (Brakes, Rear) S10/S15/SONOMA 83-93 4x4 S10/S15/SONOMA 94-97 VIN model "T" (4x4) SEVILLE 80-85 SEVILLE 80-85 rotor only (Brakes, Rear) SYCLONE 91 TORONADO 79-85 TORONADO 79-85 rotor only (Brakes, Rear) TYPHOON 92-93 For info Hollanders shows these rear disc assemblies being interchangable: BUICK 78 Electra, Limited and Park Avenue, disc BUICK 78-80 LeSabre, disc CADILLAC 77-79 disc RIVIERA 77-78 disc SEVILLE 77-79 I listed these because I thought the 78/79 Seville was the one everybody was looking for the convert GM 12 bolts to disc brakes. (I may be wrong). Hope this helps.

ok. but the rotors have the incorrect bolt pattern: 5x4.75 our trucks (5 lug) is 5x5. I am waiting to find out if I can use a stock rotor with the correct bolt pattern so rotors dont need to be machined.
If I can get an answer from some vendors on what rotors they use I will see what interchanges for that. Thanks for the info so far. |

The 77-79 Seville etc. are 5 on 5 wheels. The 80-up is 5x4.75. I have not seen the specs but I would go to local parts store and have them pull a rear rotor for a 79 and 80 Seville and compare them to see if they are the same dimensions except for the bolt pattern.

Hollanders dont list bracket interchange...only PS pump interchange.
Pretty much any pre-integeral head 250 six brackets off nova's, chevelles, impalas. etc will work.. and they are not hard to find around these parts. The 77-79 seville rear rotors are the correct bolt pattern.... and there easy to find here too... there are 3 sets at the local yard around here too. I grabbed a set -up for myself for some future swap, with the seville calipers you can get an emergency rear brake that will work also.
