07 brake conversion

So I have a question about if it's somewhat easy to swap out the front and rear brakes from an ss on to my lt. I know anything is possible if your wallet is deep enough but I want to know if it's logical to do such a thing to a project car.

Yep. If youre a manual i know lsj hubs work with stock axles and everything bolts on the front. The rear youll need powell caliper brackets or an lsj/lnf rear subframe like i have.

I do have the manual transmission, so it's basically just find a donar car and take the parts and do some fabrication? Would I need the whole rear axle from the ss?
