Looking into Cheap 12" Brake setup

[BuickMike]

What parts do I need to do this? I know I need B body spindles, 3rd gen F body rotors and calipers, but from what years do I need to look for? Also, do I need different ball joints and upper control arms?

I've got a set of GTA rims so the rears should work up front once this is done. I also have 15X5" Convo Pro's which I believe will fit. Anyone know for sure?

Thanks,

Mike

Do a search here,at www.montecarloss.com or the FAQ page here www.SCandC.com for the b swap and make sure you know it`s downsides too before you get into it. IMO you`re better of either getting a good set of Performance Friction or Hawk pads for the brakes you have or coughing up the bucks for a Baer Brakes kit, Marcus
