Impala SS Rear Disc Brake Brackets
Here is my latest design of the Impala SS rear disc brake brackets. These are laser cut out of 1/4" with 1/4" spacers stitch welded on and then tapped M12 x 1.25 for the caliper cage attachment bolts. These brackets will bolt onto the truck 12 bolt rear differentials from '64-'82 and the 10 bolt truck differentials from '79-'87. The price on these is $115.00 plus a flat rate shipping of $9.20. This pricing is always current and up to date. PayPal is preferred, but I will also accept money orders. The package includes one pair of brackets plus grade 8 fasteners to attach the brackets to the axle tube flange and the metric bolts to attach the caliper cages to the brackets. This setup is for the 5 x 5 bolt pattern.
If you would like a set, post in this thread, send me a PM or send an email to captainfab454@hotmail.com, and I will give you the ordering and payment instructions and current lead time.

Re: Impala SS Rear Disc Brake Brackets
The Impala e-brake was a shoe setup inside the rotor which would be a little difficult to adapt to a 12 bolt truck diff. The Impala rotor fits over the axle flange with nothing more than slightly opening up the center hole to slide over the step on the axle flange. A die grinder and a flap drum will do it is 5 minutes or less.

Re: Impala SS Rear Disc Brake Brackets

Re: Impala SS Rear Disc Brake Brackets
I haven't received it yet.....as soon as I do I will send a set out to you. Thanks
Thanks for replying Josh. I see you got yours today, have you put them on yet? I'm not aware of any 5 X 5 truck rotors that would work on the rear.

Re: Impala SS Rear Disc Brake Brackets
What year of 10 bolt? Are you referring to a 8.5 truck 10 bolt? If so I'm pretty sure the ddistance from the axle tube flange to the axle flange is the same as a 12 bolt. So they should work but I would need to verify that, unless someone here can.
I'm working on putting together a list of parts and part numbers. You basically need rotors, calipers, factory caliper brackets, pads, and hoses for a '95 Impala SS. You will also need a brake line adapter to go from metric to SAE.

Re: Impala SS Rear Disc Brake Brackets
What do you recommend for the prop valve when adding the Impala rear discs?

With that said,as for the Impala rear brake conversion, I think I might recommend seriously looking at the components that GM used on the Impala for a start. Although the weight bias of a pickup is likely to be a bit different than an Impala. Also the weight bias from one pickup to another will be different in how the truck was built. This is mainly why I believe an adjustable proportion valve is beneficial to the brake system. BTW Scot, how did that booster bracket work out for you?

Re: Impala SS Rear Disc Brake Brackets
It looks great . . ... sitting on a shelf full of parts (Vette MC, Malibu booster, Porterbuilt Dropmember, 350/700R4, van tilt, blah, blah. blah.... Also should have a couple of steelies on the way
![]() The parts are waiting to come together but I've gotten behind on building the frame for my retroRod project so everything else is delayed as well. Should make for a busy summer. There will be a thread w/details soon.

Re: Impala SS Rear Disc Brake Brackets
The Impala SS used a shoe setup inside the rotor for an e-brake. So using These brackets on your truck won't give you an e-brake. If you need to have an e-brake, you'll have to buy the Camaro caliper brackets that glock35ipsc is making. Thanks for inquiring.

Re: Impala SS Rear Disc Brake Brackets
Capt....please check your PM's as I am interested.
I'm also curious to know what the diameter of the impala rotor is? Can you get me a measurement from the center of the axle to the highest point on the caliper? My wheel has a 7 inch backspacing so fitment is going to be close depending on the dimensions. Thanks in advance
