I'd be quite surprised if GM/Cadillac used different rear end components (control arms or whatever). I thought the width difference was just in the wheels - coupes got wider rears than sedans & wagons.

they list different axle shafts and different control arms I want someone to just measure one
This is great info, I was going to take the 8.8 route but now I changed my mind. I’m going to start looking for the parts now and try to get the best deal on it, by the time summer rolls in I’ll be ready to knock this out of the list.
So I now have 21000 miles on mine. My stock driveshaft carrier bearing is getting pretty bad from sagging. Can someone with a stock rear pull driveshaft measure form rear transmission flange to stock v1 flange and get me a length? I want to know exactly how much it is different as I would not have thought this driveshaft would of lasted that long with it "1/2 inch short" This would put this issue to bed for sure.
Hey man is there any way i can email u or shoot u a Facebook message that way i can get some tips? Picking uo a v2 rear subframe tomorrow and honestly ill probably need ur help if ur willing. Just on tips and tricks.
Pretty much everything is here man. Start wrenching and if you come across something that kicks your ***, come here, ask, and we can point you in the right direction.
Can you use subframe bolts from a v2 or do u have to have some custom made and do u know the length by any chance? I got a whole subframe along with the bolts for it. And i still have my v1 subframe bolts as well.
Swap complete. Just curious if anyone is running 2010 ss camaro wheels on the rear? I know theyre 20 inch so im not sure if they r gonna fit. If not what wheels are yall running?
Just curious. Do i need to get the v2 brake lines to connect my calipers to the v2 subframe? I messed with the v1 brake lines and they dont seem to want to go into the v2 hard lines
so here is a full pass.
Hot lapped car 7 runs without 15 mins this was run 5 or 6 can't remember.
This is a warmed over ls2 cam spec 224/238 112, heads ported by me all motor on all season tires. I have 30K on rear end now with stock driveshaft still works great! Have had car 165+
rear wheel hp estimated around 450 not back on dyno since new cam and porting of heads. Weight 4040lbs with me in car at track.
