Strange 12 bolt from LS1 to LT1 OK, got this Strange 12 bolt from an LS1 car with 4 channel ABS, I am putting this into a 97 (LT1) 4ch ABS car. The rear end has the LS1 backing plates and I was hoping to just put the LT1 stuff on the rear end and keep my LT1 stuff. I know I have to pull the axles and get the backing plates switched but what else do I need to do? Can it be as easy as swapping backing plates? Strange is of no help yet, I might have not found the right tech person to talk to....
OR is my only option going to LS1 rear brakes?
Can you guys help?

Shon, all you need to do is swap on your LT1 backing plates and parking brake hardware, the axle housings are identical.
Also, I would like to buy the LS1 backing plates and parking brake hardware from you if you are willing to sell it.

Thinking about just trying that but bearings and seals are going to be expensive experimenting....
The backing plates have to be sent back to seller, sorry.
