ls1 backing plates

hey guys, I thought I saw a template for making your own backing plates for ls1 rears around here before, but now can't find it. I've been looking on e-bay and such and the stockers are around $100, rather not spend that much. I don't need the e-brake equipment, so I was thinking it would be cheaper to do it myself.

I've never seen brackets for mounting LS1 rears other than the stockers, good luck.

Re: ls1 backing plates

I need a set of those, cheapest I've seen was 80 bucks on gm parts direct. I've never seen alternatives either.

In case you are wondering the part #'s are 10444625 and 10444626.

Re: ls1 backing plates

Thanks for the replys. I must have been mistaken. It is crazy how a chunk of iron can cost so much.
