anyone here running the C4 vette brakes and more importantly the 12" JL9 ones?

how do you like them?

what did it take to make them fit as i wanna put these brakes on my '79 malibu, stock arms and joints, and from what i gather they pretty much bolt right onto the S10 ZQ8 spindles, which i really like as they use a sealed hub design...

although do the blazer spindles keep the malibu's factory rid eheight as i thought i saw someone call them "drop spindles"...???

The blazer swap retains the ride height. You'll need to do a full alignment up front after installing them, but track width and ride height are the same.
