RearEnd Help

06-11-2004, 11:44 AM

ok guys i need some help here.

I recently bought a 99 Z28 built rear End. It did not come with the Disk brakes so i bought some disk brakes from a 94 Z28. Will this Brakes work on that Rearend?

Also i know i need an E-brake Cable to do the swap. I have a 97 Firebird so do i need to get an E-brake cable for a 97 Trans Am/Z28? Or will any 4th Gen cable work? Thanks guys

As long as you use the whole disk brake setup from the 94, including the backing plates and calipers, you "should" be fine.
The 98 + f-bods had larger rotors, which made the caliper height position a little different and the caliper was mounted on the opposite side of the wheel too.
You may need the 94's brake lines too. Not sure though.
