What do all of you think?

this isn't the actuall hardware you will get with the kit it was just some bolts I used for fitting it all together.

One more thing to add, Just like the kore3 kit you will have to have the flange of your axle turned down to 5.7 inches in order to get the axle pushed in far enough to re-install the c-clip.

Looking good :tup: does the bracket kit come with SS brake hoses as well? Kore3 brackets are $105 w/ All the hardware and another $57 with lines. However the entire kit with ebrake minus rotors/calipers is $754. Just a comparison.

The $105 is for the brackets with no ebrake provision. I would be including the extra dust sheild and bracket for the e-brake cable, plus the extra hardware for mounting the e-brake components. The reason I'm not including the brake hoses is because it is cheaper for you to get them on your own.

Sounds fair to me :tup: thanks for the comparrison. The Kore3 "kit" is just the brackets and hardware. He is also currently out of stock for a few weeks. I'm ok with $200 price based on what we're getting. I'd love to have the ebrake setup but I can't justify the cost right now.

I didn't research much into the installation other than removing the drum bracke hardware and removing the axels. What do you mean the axel flange needs to be turned down 5.7"? In order for it clear the internal ebrake drums?

The outside of the flange is to big of a diameter to clear the e-brake shoes and slide the axle into the housing far enough to install the c-clip that retains the axle in the rear end.

Makes sense, that's what I was thinking. I assume the bracket alone with ebrake parts will Not need this to be done? Now I'm really leaning further towards a non-ebrake setup with the option to ad it later .

As long as you don't put the ebrake shoes on you wont have to turn the axles.

when you are all set up could you show a picture of that will be in your kit? I already have some parts sitting here that I do not need to duplicate.

I would be interested depending on price and I guess I should figure out which corvette brakes are on the front of the ty already

Re: Gauging interest- rear c5/c6 brake brackets with e-brake

If the caliper is black or red and look like an upside down W, then they are likely c5. If the caliper is close to the size of a football and is red with three circles behind the corvette writing, then they are C6. If they are the size of a football, and are blue then they are C6 ZR1 brakes. If they are powder coated, then well I can't help.

When will your kits be available? I'm in for a e-brakeless (for now) kit ASAP. That's the only parts I'm missing to finish up my Typhoon.

Re: Gauging interest- rear c5/c6 brake brackets with e-brake

I have 1 kit with all the e-brake stuff ready now and 9 additional kits but the e-brake parts need to be ordered for those kits. So I have 1 ready to go right now for 550 and 9 at 200. If someone wants it shipped with everything it will be a little bit of a wait since most for the brake parts need to be shipped in from out of town.

Those are purdy. I went with the f-body brakes just so I could keep the e-brake. Good luck selling 'em, I'm sure you won't have a problem.
