Still working on it. I will do some detailed pics of the steering knuckle once I get the other side off to compair.

Other than that. The calipers are CTS-v fronts, and the rotors are C-6 Vette Z-51's.

I'd like to add that I still need some parts. List below.
Need Corvette A/C compressor and braket. With bolts if can.
Need a 2000 + F-body engine harness for an A-4 trans. Would like to have no EGR. But will deal with it if I can get a harness soon. No AIR system.
If close enough, would like to buy a low mile 4L60E trans from an LS equiped car or truck.
Need a Corvette front belt drive system with balancer pully, alternator, power steering pump, idler and tensioner pullies, brakets and bolts. (might buy brand new if I have to)
I also am looking for a complete charcole grey interior swap. And a body harness from an all power extended cab 2 wd truck.

Black case. Going with the newer unit and converting the BCM over to a 2002 unit. Swapping power everything into it.

The body harness is out of another truck with the correct BCM. But the engine harness is still up in the air. I may just bite the bullet and buy one. I think in the end, it will just be money well spent.

I have. Just been taking my sweet *** time. LOL. Most of my spare cash has been going to fund a new home. So the build is taking slower than ever now. But I have been working on the frame, and getting all the ZQ-8 parts. The motor is almost done now too. A few body parts have been taken care of like the bed and doors. I've gotten the body control harness and module to convert to power everything. It's getting there.

Just found this on a search. Did you have more detailed pics on how you did the caliper to spindle mounts?
