I did my suspension on my Iroc the other day, and I gotta tell ya, those spring compressors don't actually fit in there!! I had to take the compressors apart and pull it off in pieces.
Good luck with the 1st gen install dogg

well....the good thing about the brakes is that I'm getting them through CSK Proshop (checker's auto). And my job has an account through them so I get a huge discount on everything. So I'll basically be paying half of what anyone else would pay.

Hm.. a red first and 2nd gen in the family? All you would need then is to adopt Dave (Drvngstorm) and another member (Who's name I forgot) that has a 97 SS.. then you'd have all 4 gens in red. That'd be cool.

I’m pretty sure the front disc setup off a 2 gen will fit on a 1 gen.

Now that I think about it there are probably a lot of 70's GM cars with a front disc setup that could be used on a 1 gen Camaro.

conversion kits tun from about $700-$1000 for the front. When I do it, Im going to be going to 4 wheel disk.
Oh and Elk. All of this stuff NEEDED to be done ASAP. If you would like to donate money for it ill be glad to accept it. Im sorry that I can not please everyone all at once considering it is your car and all. And I have to get it done by the 18th which was 3 weeks when I started. So Id like to see you get all of the stuff Im doing and a disk brake conersion kit on top of that. These brakes are just to hold me over until I can get the kits. The brake parts didn't cost me barely anyything due to my CSK discount.
