Called ruffstuff today
they dont make ones for the GM calipers
The brackets they make use tacoma calipers and stock front rotors
The guy on the phone said i can use my stock front calipers and rotors
That would be awsome cause i dont need them anymore
Now I just need to find drilled and slotted stock rotors
LC Engineering should have them.
Here's the place I got the Mustang rotors from,good prices & no different in quality than other brands.
brakeplanet.com.
Just went to this site,they have Power Slot drilled rotors $67 ea. ,no slots
What master did you use that is 1" ?
Does it bolt up to the stock booster?
Where did you get those rotors?
They are Mustang SVO front rotors?
What Calipers are you using?
I dont need Ebrake
Thanks in advance
Miss print ( too many beers),believe the unit is 1 1/8", not 1"
Stock one is 7/8"
I want those rotors you have where can I get them? Are they 11in?
Mustang SVO right?
No mods needed correct?
And what calipers did you use Caddy what year?
I dont need ebrake
Thanks in advance

Does anyone have the rear caliper bracket drawn in cad that I can have someone cut for me? I am intrested in the swap and have a 89 rear axle on my nissan and want to do the big brake setup on the front and want to do disc in the rear also...
Go to the original post I made when I first did this,all the info is there.
If you can't find it e-mail me & I'll send !
No on drawing ,but have the pattern I used ,part was plasma cut from 3/8" mild steel, & I ground to shape & machined as needed!
Size is 11.32'', got through brakeplanet.com,fit right on axle ,once backing plate & drum are removed.
Replace seals & bearings while there & longer wheel studs my be needed( HAVE SAME LENGTH AS STOCK )!!! Calipers through classicperformanceproducts.:
I think I found what I need
check this out
These brackets use either the monte carlo caliper (no ebrake) or the eldorado caliper (with ebrake)
My only problem is they list these brackets for a 4wd truck only
I am assuming a I can use these brackets as long as my axle spacing is the same as the 4wd which is 3 7/16 square bolt hole to bolt hole. does anyone know if the 2wd axle measurements are the same?
Last question would be on the rotor they list use of a 11 9/16 GM six lug rotor which once again you only fit a 4wd truck
If the mustang rotor measures the same diameter or smaller it should work
Any input guys?
Yes they will work.....those are similar to the ones I ordered and you just use the Mustang Rotor.....don't worry about it fits a 6 lug just pretend they didn't print that...just get the brackets.
