Rear Brake Adapter Plates for LS Swaps on F-Body
Installing an LS engine into an F-Body often leaves the stock rear brake mounts misaligned with the axle. These F-Body Rear Brake Adapter Plates solve that exact challenge by providing a precise fit for late model F-body calipers on 10 and 12 bolt axles. Installation requires only basic hand tools and no welding, which means most swaps can be completed in a single weekend. Beyond clear alignment, the plates maintain consistent stopping performance under hard driving, preserving safety on the street or strip.
Precision Fit for F Body Rear Brakes
The adapter plates are machined to exact tolerances, ensuring late-model rear calipers align perfectly on both 10- and 12-bolt axles. By maintaining factory mounting locations, they eliminate common misalignment issues that can cause uneven pad wear or reduced braking response. This precision fit preserves the original rotor-to-caliper clearance, delivering consistent performance under aggressive cornering or heavy braking scenarios. Installers can trust these plates to replicate OE geometry, so modern F Body brakes operate as intended without custom modifications.
Rugged Steel Construction with USA Craftsmanship
Each plate is stamped from high-grade sheet steel and finished with corrosion-resistant coating to withstand road debris and harsh weather. The robust design resists flex under load, which is critical when upgrading to more powerful late-model calipers that generate higher clamping forces. Proudly manufactured in the USA, these plates meet strict quality controls that ensure every unit holds its shape and alignment over thousands of braking cycles. The result is a durable adapter that supports demanding street or strip applications.
Effortless Bolt On Installation
Designed for simplicity, the plates install with basic hand tools and include all necessary hardware, eliminating the need for welding or axle modifications. Mounting holes line up directly with GM 10- and 12-bolt patterns, allowing most enthusiasts to complete the swap in a single weekend. Detailed instructions guide you through each step, from removing the stock brackets to torquing fasteners to spec. This straightforward process reduces shop time and keeps costs down while delivering a finished assembly that's ready for immediate use.
Improved Stopping Power and Control
By enabling use of modern F Body rear calipers and pads, these plates significantly boost braking torque and modulation compared to original components. The upgraded system offers firmer pedal feel and quicker response, enhancing driver confidence on the street or track. Consistent pad contact prevents uneven wear, which further extends service intervals and reduces maintenance efforts. Whether you're towing, autocrossing, or simply cruising, the enhanced stopping power and precision control deliver a safer, more engaging driving experience.
These adapter plates deliver precise alignment and reliable braking performance for your LS equipped F Body.
