im looking to do a rear disc conversion here soon and cant seem to find any info.. has anybody even attempted this yet. im probably gonna have to go to the dealer and but the rear spindles etc. off an SS or SS/SC....

 

There are two options for this.
Option A: Order the Disc Conversion Kit from Stainless Steel Brake Company $1200
Option B: Convert To % lug and use the set up off of a SS/Sc
Here is the Kicker for both options you need at least 17 inch Rims

Do not do it. Quit thinking about it. It will be a huge waste of money and time. Drive the LT until you can afford something better or get rid of it and get a ss/sc. Do not waste your time trying to turn s**t into gold. No offense, I'm just trying to save you lots of money.

More importantly if you actually pulled it off, nobody would notice or care when you go to sell it or trade it in. They won't give you $5 for it.

 

I think Baer is also now offering a brake kit just like SSBC. It is just as expensive.

I also must agree that a brake swap is not necessary. It would be almost a purely looks mod unless you are doing a auto-x racing.

 

i dont plan on gettin rid of it. i bought to build a show only car anyhow...weekend driver etc. i didnt buy an ss/sc for a reason. id rather build my motor then buy one already build..the car has 22 miles on it and its in 500 pieces all gettin redone.

i see they say the offer it for the 5 lug. ill have to call em..my 07 lt has the 5x110 bolt pattern...and i have 18x8 wheels so ill be good there. thanks for the link...

 

Tsa Performance is that your car in your sig? I thought the 07's came with the amber cover for the turn signal removed and replaced with just an amber bulb. Maybe it's only on some 2007 models? But anyway as far as your question, yes a conversion is possible but I'm not sure its worthwhile. I read on these boards that something lik 90%+ of your stopping power comes from the front brakes so a rear disc conversion would be awesome especially if you went with big brakes, but for a car thats not an all out autoX-er it probably isn't needed. If that's what you want to do though, good luck!

 

ya the cobalt in the sig is mine. and ya its an 07. i have no idea about the stuff u where askin but the title says 07...i dunno maybe ur right on the some have it. as for the brakes im building a SHOW car its just for looks and thats basicly it... but ya if im gonna do it i will be goin with the SSBC for the rear conversion aswell as for the front....thanx guys for ur imput....
