2muchBoost yes sir. If you got 17’s or bigger it’s a great upgrade. I knew it would be an improvement but I was blown away. Stops on a dime and give 9 cent change 😎
@@SkinnyPedalMotorsports I have 6 piston Baer brakes on mine with a single in the rear..it stops on a dime and give you back change...lol....What setup is on the rear?
Skinny Pedal Motorsports k. just got done w this c5 brake swap thanks to your vids bro helped out a lot . I used the brake line from the c5 calipers and bolted right up to the regals existing steel brake line . Just had to remove braket aswell . Will the old ones bolt up the to the c5 caliper?
Skinny Pedal Motorsports what wheel size did you have to use to fit this set up? I bought cragar soft 8s 17x9 5inch bs from jegs but they hit the caliper braket . Would a 17x8 4.5inch bs be the better fitment?
turbojay70 I had stainless to actually put on but I tried removing my old ones and they didn’t come off and started to strip. Plan on eventually doing stainless when I go with all new hard lines in the future.
Love the Channel!! Great content!! Is there anyway you can post a link to those brackets ?I have an 88 SS Monte Carlo ,I’m going to do the same thing & I cannot find the brackets! Got the Spindles & the calipers are in the mail. Thanks
Skinny pedal quick question... After you done the c5 swap was the off set tue same for gbodys? 5/4 .75? I have moser axles 28 splin will my offset still work for my forged rims I bought for 5/4 .75 but we're doing the front and back c5 brake and caliper swap now.... Looking forward to hearing from you....
@skinny pedal motorsports I just bought my c5 corvette calippers front & back, can you recommend where I can get the rest of my hardware? I have the blazer spindles I need 13"-13.5" rotors brackets etc......
William Lewis I shopped through advance and had them price match amazon which was significantly cheaper. They will match it online. Brackets for the blazer spindles from eBay. Look in my description.
Dope video bro. I love this set up. Im doing it on my 95 caprice. But I'm trying to piece together a kit for a G-body also. Can you send me the link to where you got the adapter brakets. I can't seem to find them, even when I type in your description...if you can it will be greatly appreciated, thanks
Good stuff! More junk yard crawl parts to grab now lol
Ol' girl coming along.
ViZionZ@BoydNet Photography thanks man. Ready for Friday night drags to be back.
@@SkinnyPedalMotorsports Me too. I'm looking forward to getting out there and shooting.
Great info....

2muchBoost just explorer brakes on a ford 9. I’ll upgrade eventually
thanks for the wheel size
No problem 🤘🏼
What about parking break? Where? How?
No parking brake
Brakes are the best invention since the skinny pedal... you can quote me on that one
Haha. You right!
Brackets don't show up on ebay
Unfortunately I think they got discontinued
@@SkinnyPedalMotorsports 👍
No link to bracket
Unfortunately I think it got deleted off eBay
Nice swap
antawain shoemaker thanks brotha.

Sir! Thank you kindly for this....exactly what i needed. What about the rear?
Heavy G312 I just run my stock ford 9 disc
How can you tell if the brakes are c5
The lettering is different. All c5 brakes are the same
@@SkinnyPedalMotorsports thanks again
I meant to say calipers
@@SkinnyPedalMotorsports not the brakes the calipers
@@Bball128 they only have one design for the c5.
do the factory wheels still work
They will not with the vette brakes but you can if you keep the blazer brakes.
What spacers do i need for the hub ?
Jabie Barber I used the ones that came with the kit I purchased
Were cant i get the rear brakets at?
Mine are just rear explorer brakes
Great job with the video. Do you recommend replacing the old brake lines also, maybe with stainless steel ones?
turbojay70 I had stainless to actually put on but I tried removing my old ones and they didn’t come off and started to strip. Plan on eventually doing stainless when I go with all new hard lines in the future.
Do u have the( link) u used for ebay for the bracket? I order some from speed way motors and thr spindle holes don't line up
Unfortunately they don’t sell it anymore
Ok thanks. Ordered some from speed way motors and the holes that bolt to the caliper are correct but spindles holes are off. Appreciate the response

yes the bolt pattern will be the same.
When you replaced the hub, was it the same gbody hub or corvette one? I thought I noticed the new one had an abs sensor on it thats why I asked.
str8304 it’s a s10 blazer hub and spindle.
@@SkinnyPedalMotorsports Thx
@@SkinnyPedalMotorsports Last question, are the blazer hubs the same bolt pattern as the gbody?
str8304 yes sir. 5x4.75
What front brake hoses are you using because the ones I'm using gets caught between the caliper and frame when I turn the wheel
I used the factory lines off my regal.
@@SkinnyPedalMotorsports they don't hit the frame when you turn the wheel
Do you know of a donor vehicle that I can use the rims and tires of of?
For?
@@SkinnyPedalMotorsports 87 oldsmobile cutlass.... I did the big brake upgrade and in need of rims and tires for mock up
@@Bball128 front has to be at least a 17
@@SkinnyPedalMotorsports I'm try to find some with the right bolt pattern and offset
So did you have any problems with the outer tire rod end fitting into the spindle?
None at all
@@SkinnyPedalMotorsports my tire rod end will not fit all the way into the spindle smh
@@Bball128 it’s a tapered fit I believe you
@@SkinnyPedalMotorsports so do I need to open the hole or buy different tire rod ends
Are the c5 a 4 or 6 piston .. I got ahold of c7 zo6 calipers wonder could I make it work

No idea.
