if you have a gt 5 you do not have to change knuckles to fit brembos, but if you are not 5 x 110 you will have some redriolling to do. all the knuckles save the LNF are the same, the CED Brembo kit comes with spacers and shims and bolts so the brembo conversion can be done properly and safely. I have a complete pc'd brembo package front and rear TC calipers for 1500 It can be adapted to a drum brake axle at the rear if you wish for a few dollars more for the parts.

No the hubs are only 5x114.3. He had to redrill the stock SS/TC rotors that have the stock 5x110 pattern to 5x114.3 to fit on the wheel studs... His front hubs are from a grand am that has the optimal bolt pattern. All your questions can be answered if you just look at the first couple pages and read.

Ah yes, look at the TC axles vs the SC ones. More flexible, and much beefier.
I believe John has a new bolt on kit for the lnf's. lsj's still suck haha

You will just need to get hub centric rings for the wheels you buy if you do the 5x114 conversion. The pattern won't affect the center bore. The redrill will still be centered around the center bore. Ill vouch for mongo. Does great work. He red filled my hubs and I've had them on almost a year now with no issues. I also have aftermarket wheels.

LNF model conversion
What if you have a Chevy Cobalt LNF. Can you just swap the grand am hub assembly's and be good to go? Or is there anything else used or needed...? Also with this hinder ABS?
