The following link gives the rear bearing/seals part numbers for a 10-bolt. You'll have the remove the axles so there are some other tips/suggestions as well. I'm running 1LE's up front so I can't help there; however, Advance or a quick search on RockAuto will locate the parts.

Hard lines can be had from such sources as http://www.finelinesinc.com/

Re: Brake parts

Thanks for the info on the brake lines and the bearings. Don't think I will be replacing the rear bearings. I forgot that they are internal and not on the rotors like the front rotors. I did find some parts that I originally bought for an 84 trans am and all part number match for my 89 formula so that saves me some money on parts.

Now for the front bearings and seals. What I have for seals the part numbers are s-8871 and the bearings are s-a6. I believe they are the inner bearings. Now does this look like the right part numbers for the outer wheel bearing

National Taper Bearing Set
Part No. A-34
Warranty: 1 YEAR REPLACEMENT IF DEFECTIVE
Outer; Exc. Performance Pkg

Please someone chime in on these so I can start getting the rest of my brake parts to start on this project. Thanks for all the help.

There are only two outer bearings and the above isn't for the 1LE (performance package), so you should be good to go.
