Default 12 bolt questions

I have the chance to buy a Moser 12 bolt with 4.30's and a spool for $1400. It has lt1 brakes on it and 3000 miles with 5 track passes. It's 4 years old but has been sitting up for the last 2 years. My questions are how hard is it to change the brakes to ls1 brakes, and is there anything to risk getting one that's been sitting up? Thanks,
Josh

Brakes should swap right over and the only thing it might need is seals, which aren't hard to swap.

A lot of people go from LS1 brakes to LT1 brakes, as they generally allow 15" wheels to fit without grinding the calipers. Something to consider. Bob

you should have to swap your backing plates to use with the ls1 brakes. the lt1 axles are a little shorter i believe.
