Hello TGO, I am new to the forum thing so please excuse me for any errors and for also opening a thread that's probably been beat to death by now.

So..
I own a 1992 Base Firebird that came with an open diff and drum brakes. I had the bright idea of welding it in order to have posi and to enjoy the stuff you can do with full posi... It was fun to have but now I am moving towards building my car and want to start with the rearend. My question is, what will I need to make this happen? I already bought an 02 Z28 Rear that came with ABS and 3.42s. It didn't come with brakes/calipers/brake lines, it's just the rear axle with hub assembly. Can someone help me by giving me a list of what I will need to purchase and what parts they recommend (brake kits, type of proportioning valve, length of brake lines, etc..) I would highly appreciate your help. Thank you

 

hope you get some help with this, when i swapped mine the rear end I was putting in was complete just weeding out some problems in the brakes. Not sure the entire list you would need to purchase. As for the brake lines I bought the factory rear brake hose with the T block for my car then bought straight brake line and bent it into proper position to the calipers. as for the rest the best idea i can think of would be to go to pick n pull for all the brackets and calipers (buy new pads and rotors on ebay or something)

 

do you have the disc brake mounting brackets?

 

No I just have the bare differential with the reluctor rings and hub assembly. Do I need the brackets first before buying a brake kit?
