Does anyone see any problems with putting a 2001 rear end in a 95? It is a non ASR rear end. It comes with brakes. I'm also getting the front rotors, spindles, calipers for it off an LS1.

The rear brake caliper brackets changed at one point. Im not sure of the year, but you may want to look into that. Unless your getting the rear calipers off the LS1 too. I know this because Moser sent me the wrong caliper brackets for my 12 bolt and after pressing on the axle bearings, I tried to bolt my calipers on and.......no go.So, off came the brand new bearings to put the right brackets on....

I guess there isn't anything else to be concerned about. I pick everything up this afternoon. T56 conversion kit, LS1 al drive shaft, complete rear end, front rotors, spindles, and calipers. I have a Hurst billet shifter and roller pilot bearing on order to be delivered tomorrow.

Well I'm back from getting all the parts. I still have a few items to get. I need flywheel bolts, pressure plate bolts, throw out bearing, and pigtail for the reverse lights. But I have to say that I think I got a pretty good deal from Scott at Tennessee auto parts. The guy is LS1 nuts. He put a LS1 in a 80s El Camino, 70 something truck and some even older truck. He found a Hurst shifter out of I think a 2001 Firehawk and threw it in to the pile of parts I got. Now I have to return the one I ordered that is to be delivered tomorrow. Oh joy. And it is supposed to be 18 degrees here in the morning.

Youre doing this OUTSIDE? I hope youre at least in the garage with a heater
Sounds like a fun project. Good luck!96 WS6 Formula: Ram Air, 383 Stroker, Ported LT4 Heads and Manifold, 1.6 Crane Rollers, 58MM T.B., AS&M Headers, Borla Exhaust, Meziere Elec.

OK so I have another rear end question. I picked up the rear end yesterday and I'm wondering if I got the correct one. It's sitting on jack stands and if I hold the yoke from turning and I turn one axle the other axle rotates very easily in the opposite direction. I tried this on the one in my car and you can't turn an axle if the yoke is not turning (at least by hand) (emergency brakes not on). Now I thought you could not do this with a limited slip rear end. I think I got a rear end out of a 6 cylinder not a V8 car. How can I tell by looking at it without taking the cover off.2002 Electron Blue Vette, 1SC, FE3/Z51, G92 3.15 gears, 308.9 RWHP 321.7 RWTQ (before any mods), SLP headers, Z06 exhaust, MSD Ignition Wires, AC Delco Iridium Spark Plugs, 160 t-stat, lots of ECM tuning
