In all seriousness, I'm pretty sure my Seville rear discs are less than 11".

I'd call to be sure on what rotors, but the calipers sounds like G-Body stuff.

I think these are what will have the calipers you are looking for


I am not sure about rotors

Keep in mind, this is for a rear application. Surely one wants an E-brake, even the super lame-o '70s-'80s GM one?

I'm using Seville rr hats on the El C., they measure only a tad less than 12".

It always surprises me how many people don't just grab a Seville setup and throw it on their car. They are such an easy bolt on for 10 and 12 bolts.

I know they're growing on trees in the land of magical California junk yards, but in the last five years, I have seen exactly ONE Seville back here in a bone yard.

Yeah they are pretty common around CA Junkyards. In retrospect I've probably walked by dozens upon dozens of them over the last few years. Caddy's seem popular at the Milliken and San Bernardino yards. I just didn't realize I could use parts from one until recently :-\

Hey, Chad, just how easy is it for a '76 BOP 10 bolt with axle retainers, not c-clip.?
