So while trying to collect the rest of the parts for the 12" brake swap, I've noticed that searching for 'right' parts isn't as easy as it SHOULD be. I'm going to try to keep this current as the brake swap is done...

I think they can still be had from GM, but they need to be std duty brakes. This is for the bubbajoe 12" style swap, his site doesn't mention specifics...

FRONT
Standard Duty..
Left --
Right --


REAR
Left -- 10112652
Right -- 10112652 (same part fits left and right)

AND just so this is all in one place..

Rotors
Front -- 88 Corvette
Rear -- 88 Corvette

Master Cylinder
67 to 80 Corvette

Calipers
Front -- 1985 Corvette

Rear -- 1988 to 1996 Corvette


Lug Studs
Dorman Part # : 610-323
Advance Auto Parts # 98501 (Pik - a - Nut brand)

Banjo Bolts
Front - 10x1.0mm
Rear - 10x1.0mm

Mounting Bolts
(8) 12M 1.75 x 30mm Hex Head Cap Screws (fronts)
(8) 12M 1.75 x 20mm Hex Head Cap Screws (rear)

I called the dealer and they said that the rear caliper brackets are the same side to side, and are a p/n of 10112652?

Have you verified the part numbers that you have in your post? I want to order these, but I want to make sure they are the 85 front and 88-96 rear.

The Rear caliper brackets are the SAME side to side. The calipers themselves look to be exactly the same except the ebrake lever and the bleeder screw are on the opposite sides...

Wanted to add, there is a set screw that holds the inner part of the caliper level across the face. It is located opposite of the ebrake arm. That screw must be set correctly or the piston will NOT retract. Once you hit the brakes, the piston will stay out. You must make sure that screw is there, and that its adjusted correctly...

Noticing this is an old thread, I appreciate the replies. The caliper mounting brackets came from Arts as linked above. All the 'main' parts are already bought, just waiting for mounting bolts, banjo bolts, etc...

Maybe I'll just start a new thread so it doesn't have an awkward title.
