You'll need the spindles and all. The easiest way is to buy the complete setup from an LS1 (or 98 and up V6 car) and swap it. Take the brake hoses, the spindle, the rotor, caliper, pads and if you can get it, the metal tab that the brake hose clips into (that's bolted to the K-member), it's also different and unless you drill it out or go to braided lines, the stock LS1 hose won't fit in there. Then, just remove, replace and bleed. It's not a difficult swap, but you need all the parts.

Good luck!
