real axle swap ranting( and then actual questions)

[camaro28]

i hate axle swapping! [img]smile.gif[/img]

Im putting in a 94 Z28 disc brake rear end with LSD and 3.73 gears. ended up having to cut 2 of the Lower control arm bolts. Also managed to mangle one of the rear brake lines....

Does anyone know:

how i can salvage the brake line. All i need to do is put a new fitting on the end of it and flare it i think? Where can i get a new fitting?

also, for the rear disc brakes....does anyone know the length and thread of the bolts that hold the caliper onto the bracket?

Hopefully i can get all this fiigured out....Shes been parked way to long. Coming back with 3.73/LSD, 1 piece driveshaft, and underdrive pullies!!!

I looked through my F-Body Parts List and I can't find anything for the brake line or the bolts you asked about. If you want to save money, buy a new brake line from PepBoys and bent it to fit and flare it yourself. They may have the size of the fitting in their computer.
If not, get another brake line from a GM Dealer.

As for the bolt(s), contact a GM Dealer also. They should be relatively cheap.

Get the brake line "officially" and "professionally" fixed. Brakes == your life. So, replace it with a dealer part, eat the cost, unless you trust yourself.
