Drums to Disk How-To
 
I thought that after getting some new wheels later, that I would want some disk brakes in the rear as well. This could be a winter project. I searched through the forum and all I found was a link that no longer worked. So does anyone have a how-to tutorial type thing, including parts needed and even costs...

Thanks!

Here is a link to a cardomian site that has the tut. on it, but its more than 2years ago that this link was posted on this site, so im not sure if it still has it on it, when i went to check the link the cardomain site was down because they were making improvements to the site and it will be back up shortly

Im looking for more sies to help you out, i knew of one good sites, with step by step pics because i was going to do it to my 95 v6, but on another note i would recomend if you really want to do the disk conversion just get a Z28 rear, and swap rear ends because that way you will get disk brakes, 3.42 gears, and a limited slip diferential

Ya I figured a Z28 rear would be a better choice, but finding one for a good price could be a problem. It would be cool to have POSI trac and everything. But I would probably get drilled and slotted later anyway. Would an LS1 rear work?

That is the link that I found and it has been down for a while I think

My very first Camaro was a 3.4 V6. I bought a used rear end off a Trans Am and put that in. It's actually a really easy install and I recomand going that way. Most people can't sell their ten bolts so you can pick them up pretty cheap and get the LSD and better gearing all at the same time.
