For a Chevelle? If so you can either buy a kit or use Cad parts

87 iroc's had a potentially good look to 'em....
might want to look at late model s-10's too.

79 to 85 Toro, Rivi, and Seville bolt on.

Frank, I don't remember. Are the Rivi and Toro 4 3/4 bolt the same as the Seville?

[wayne petty]

yes... they are the same car even... e bodys...


i know a secret about the rear calipers on those...

if the parking brake lever pulls more than 7/16" off the hard stop the piston screw needs ajusting...   i use a modified 14mm crowfoot line wrench that i ground thinner and reduced the length to clear the stops...  or i have a 1/2x9/16 on one end and dual square  drive ratcheting box end wrench that i ground a little thinner to replace the arms... and i spin the ajusting screw backwards a few turns... this if you are lucky will retract the inner piston and spin it inside the outer piston... once in a great while it will come apart inside...

this frees up the inner piston to let the brake lever ajust the piston out..

if there is freeplay more than a small amount between the piston, pads and rotor... it will take too much hydraulic brake pedal movement to get the car to stop...

many people tighten up the parking brake ajustment to pull the levers off the stops... wow i got way off thread...  

sorry...

wayne...

Yes they are. The factory wheels are the same as S10 4x4 wheels, only painted black.

I used the Seville brkts, calipers and rotors. I did have to turn the raised center of the axle to fit into the hat of the caliper
