Re: Camaro Caliper Brackets
 
I used to make brackets that used the GM metric calipers (the '85-'92 rear calipers fall into that catagory) and the Lincoln rotors on the 10 and 12 bolt truck rear differentials. I have since sold out of those brackets, but I do plan on developing a new and improved design in the not to distant future. The original design can be seen HERE

Right now I'm working on a new rear disc conversion. The thread can be seen HERE

Re: Camaro Caliper Brackets
 
captainfab, the f-bodies used the iron calipers you referred to 84-88 only. 89-92 uses the aluminum pbr calipers, same as the 93-97, i just don't know if there's any variation on the mounting or anything.

i think i'll take my chances, and i'll let you know the outcome. do you still have sets of these 93-97 brackets available? i'll paypal today.

Thanks

Captfab, i just bought a set of your impala SS brackets, got em a few days ago, they look fantastic!

just curious, can i use camaro calipers as well with those impala ss rotors? or do i need to use the impala calipers?

thanks alot

Captainfab 04-03-2010 11:33 PM

Re: Camaro Caliper Brackets
 
I'm afraid you'll have to use the Impala SS/Caprice calipers with those brackets since they mount a little differently.

Re: Camaro Caliper Brackets
 
I didn't realize that the '89-'92's were different from the '84-'88's......too many parts groups to keep straight :o

I did some searching and could only find pictures and no dimensions. In the pics I found they look very much the same so I don't know just what the difference is in them. The mounting holes in these brackets for the caliper bracket is 3.820" center to center.

I don't have a set of these brackets right now, but I will be ordering some on Monday, and I should have them by Tuesday. Let me know if that'll work for you.

i will definitely take a set of them. i have a set of the calipers, so i'll measure them out. i'll paypal in the next 24 hours.

Captainfab 04-04-2010 09:45 PM

Re: Camaro Caliper Brackets
 
Your PayPal payment has been received. I will get those parts ordered first thing in the morning. I'll let you know when they ship. It should be Tuesday if my supplier is still on their regular schedule.

Captainfab,
Will this upgrade change the stock backspace clearance? I'm shopping for wheels and was looking at rear 20x10 with 5.25 backspacing ala Foose Nitrous.

Captainfab 04-06-2010 12:12 AM

Re: Camaro Caliper Brackets
 
Bolting on the rotors will only move the wheel out about 1/8-3/16"

Captainfab 04-07-2010 11:13 PM

Re: Camaro Caliper Brackets
 
Right this monent I don't have any. I'm waiting on some more parts from my supplier. Their laser was down for a day or so, so they are a little behind. I was hoping to see them today, but no such luck. I'll see what tomorrow brings.

It looks like I need to order some more since I have only 1 set available and two of you wanting a set. STLowburban, you've got first dibs on the available set. Let me know.

Re: Camaro Caliper Brackets
 
I'll call my supplier in the AM and see if they can increase the order if it isn't too late for this run. Other wise I'll just order more, so it'll be just a few days to get more parts. I'll send you a PM when I get more parts.

Re: Camaro Caliper Brackets
 
Do you have any more of these? Any idea if the LS1 calipers will fit?

Would like to order a set right away if I could

Paypal is hzemall@hotmail.com and US shipping ZIP is 98295

Thanks

Captainfab 05-01-2010 03:32 PM

Re: Camaro Caliper Brackets
 
Yes I do have these in stock. If you're referring to the '98-'02 F-bodies, I don't think they will work. They are a different part number and they are designed for a 1.02" thick rotor instead of the .790" thick rotor as the Impala SS and the '93-'97 F-body rotors are. Plus the '98-'02 calipers don't have the built in E-brake. Let me know if you're still interested and I'll send you a PayPay invoice. I can ship these on Monday.

Re: Camaro Caliper Brackets
 
Could I use Caprice/Impala front rotors and Camaro front calipers with your brackets? I don't want an e-brake on mine.

FeNiX 05-19-2010 07:33 PM

Re: Camaro Caliper Brackets

Captainfab 05-19-2010 11:12 PM

Re: Camaro Caliper Brackets
 
The front rotors won't work since they have the integral hub. Have you looked at the other rear disc brake brackets that I offer? If you don't want an e-brake, you could use either the Impala SS caliper brackets or the D52 caliper brackets.
