looking to do the front Ls1 break upgrade inexpensively does anyone have this stuff laying around or cheap?

18060620 LS Knuckle
18060621 RS Knuckle
18042491 LS Caliper

7470587 Wheel hub (x2)
22163505 LS Brake Hose
22163506 RS Brake Hose
Caliper Mounting bracket with bolts (x2)

I know Ill need a few other things and maybe ball joints not sure if some of the stock stuff on the Lt1 will work like the wheel sensors amd the wheel hubs I plan on buying slotted and cross drilled rotors aswell as decent set of pads.

Lmk what ya go or if anyone has done it before tips?

Tony,

I have a LS1 brake kit that i picked up last year and was going to put on my car this spring. With selling it, I don't need it anymore. I have the spindles, lines, calipers, rotors, and new pads from a 2000 Z28. $150

you gotta make it faster before worrying about slowing it down.

LS1 brakes are awesome! You will be happy. I did the swap to my car over winter. night and day difference.

You dont need the wheel hubs, you can swap them over from the LT1 if the ls1 spindles ben has dont already have them. The sensors are the same. Pretty easy swap. I would also pick up some cotter pins. the spindles have three different sizes for the castle nuts on the ball joints. A few light taps with a hammer will knock the spindle loose from the joints. I would also recommend atleast some 97-02 corvette brake lines or stainless steel lines. the original brakes lines were pretty stretched out when the wheel was turned even with the bracket bent. More then i liked so i bought Stainless lines
