tsilney Posted February 7, 2015 Report Share Posted February 7, 2015 So looked but cant find a answer. Will a gen 2 cradle bolt in to a 95 vert? I wanna upgrade suspension and brakes and would be alot easier with the gen 2 cradle? Anyone swapped them? Whats needed? Assuming cradle, and everything attached, struts, control arms, etc? They are plentyful in the yards even the aluminum ones just wondering. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not a bolt on mod at all is it? I know Divitar had to do some crazy shit to get his C6 brakes on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish it was a bolt on mod..lol...I lm gonna be putting cts v brembos on front of the gtp and wanted to take the fbodies currently on the gtp to the vert but without the gen 2 spindles no dice for a bolt on.

rich_e777 Posted February 7, 2015 Report Share Posted February 7, 2015 IIRC Miko and others have to run F-body knuckles or spindles to get the Corvette parts to work. I`d love to take his car around the Nurburgring or at least ride shotgun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tsilney Posted February 7, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2015 Fbodies and the corvette brakes (simalar to fbodie ones) and the cts v brembos bolt right into a gen 2spindle. A 13inch rotor from a gt500 stang which has same bolt pattern..ss brake lines...done ...hence why I wish I could get the gen 2 spindles on..would be sweet..his car is bad ass...ironically I bought his old 60lb injectors last year from that car...so its spirit now lives in my gtp..lmao...[emoji1] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
