Going to remove LT1 brakes off a donor rear, what do i need to take?
I saw a 94 LT1 Z28 at the junkyard today that still had it's rear disc's. What all do i need to take off it so i can install the disc's on my drum brake rear? Thanks!

i dont know, i got the 12" rears on my diff, because my old one went out and im chill with the people at pick n pull and they didnt charge me extra. those rears are beefy though, bigger the the stock fronts!

I took the brakes off along with the ebrake cables, will i be able to use the ebrake cables or will i have to use a different set up?

Those E-brake cables won't work, you're going to wait untill Ed starts selling the updated design cables.

So the e-brakes wont work? I took the e-brake handle and the cable that connects to the handle to the two cables comming off the calipers. If i use the whole e-brake assembly would i be able to get it to work?

Coulda just swapped the entire rear axle. Better center section, if you haven't upgraded yours already.

Did that for my LS1 brakes. I have the entire e-brake assembly from handle to wheel, including all the brackets (the tunnel bracket too).

Works fine. This is the 4th gen tunnel bracket with 4th gen cables. You can see the remains of the old bracket and the cable guides still in place. I bolted it in place with the intention of welding it in later.
