I used speedwaymotors brackets that are about $10 a piece, 94-96 impala rotors, 90ish S10 front calipers and rubber brake lines. I think I spent under $200, and they work great.

Yea as long as you mount the caliper the right way so you can bleed them

What all was entailed with that conversion of yours?

I was orginially gonna put a c4 irs in my blazer but didnt so i took the rotors and calipers and all off that and threw it on mine... i made a template out of poster board with my measurement double checked it and got it machined at a local machine shop costs me 100 dollars for both plates

the beauty with my idea is you can put any caliper you want on it as long as it matches with the rotor size

thanks for great ideas. it is for my dad, he is just running a 4/6 drop on my old twenty's. he was just tossing out the idea to me and my brother. we might just do it.
