Just got my C5 Corvette Disc Brakes and calipers the other day!! I got them from discbrakesrus.com. Man! these things are nice! i highly recommend these guys, as i know some of you have already purchased from them. They were real nice and helpfull and took a lot of time out to talk and help me out. Also they gave me a deal, which i am sure anyone else can get; loaded calipers and baskets, with pads and all the clips and hardware assembled everything Brand new(not remanufactured) all powdercoated and 13" crossdrilled and slotted rotors, for $600 with free shipping. It was well worth it and i am glad i did not go the junkyard route! Check out some pics on my webpage, the camera really didn't get the right color of the calipers they are more of a true/dark blue, they look turqoise in the shots;

I will be updating my site soon with instructions and pics of how to adapt these brakes easily to a second gen F-body using the stock spindles in about a week or two

Is the 2nd gen f-body spindle the same as a b-body spindle? I am doing the same swap on my 67 chevelle and used b-body spindles with 3rd gen f-body rotors cut down as hubs. I just haven't acquired any brackets, but a guy who sells brake brackets on ebay has a bracket to put c5's on the rear and is doing a tall spindle swap(b-body) on his 67 chevelle and should be offering the brackets for the front in a couple of weeks. I just don't have the time to trial and error the brackets myself. Don't quote me but I believe his price front and rear with hardware and zinc coating should be under/around 150 shipped.

Cody,
Good to see you getting underway on the swap!

Let me know if you have any questions on the swap as I've been through it and can help you out in a bind.

Are you going to use the third gen. f-body rotor as a hub? I don't know if it was you or not, but on pro-touring.com there was a guy who figured out how to get these hubs to mount on the small diameter wheel bearing tall spindles spindles (f-body and b-body spindles are the same, but in '78 wheel bearing change occured). It was just a mater of using your stock bearing in the third gen f-body hub. Pretty simple solution that will allow you to use a smaller & lighter caliper mounting bracket and not increase track width for those guys running some wide & expensive wheels already.

I didn't have time to check your website, but did DBRUs.com include the banjo bolt in the calipers?

Another member on here, Brian English, is doing the swap as well. You might want to team up with him and swap 'notes' on the conversion.

I think you have the '78-'81 F-body/Caddy rear discs on your car. Or are you going for the C4 or possibly the C5 swap back there? I've ordered my parts for the C5 rear swap and should be underway soon. They just need to get here as they were special ordered.

Keep up the good work!

Yes, i already got my third gen rotors cut down to hubs, and that was me that figured out that you could use the stock second gen spindle, you have to use the stock outer bearing in the third gen rotor and the third gen inner bearing. Yes they came with the banjo bolts for the calipers, all i need are some brake lines. I think i am going to go with the 93-97 F body rear discs, i definetly am going to get rid of the 82 WS6 rear discs. Supposedly the 93-97 F body discs are supposed to be a direct bolt on. and are cheaper? thanks for the help, 72ssAbody, you already answered a bunch of my questions previoulsy, all that is left is for me to make some brackets!
