I pretty much said what my plan is going to be in the title.
I will be adapting this combination to my upcoming build that I am currently acquiring parts for.
In order to save myself a lot of engineering and grief, I am asking for help from anyone who has gone through this already.
C5 or C6, I imagine the basics are not appreciably different.
SOOO who out there has done this already and can help us out. I did try the search feature already.

Welcome to the site. Does this help you at all?

It's posted in the rear end section. Good luck with the search if that's not helpful.

Man that would make pulling the 3rd member even easier.

I have seen that setup before. Not exactly what I am looking at accomplishing. I want to stick with the stock car floater hubs and axles. As I gather parts I am pirating pics and build ideas in a folder. I actually already have the Miller built stuff on file now.

Here is a link to my facebook photo album which includes pics of Dust Off including my Moser 9" floater with the C6 Z06 rear calipers. For some reason I can't post the links so they show as pictures.

Thanks for this. It give me some more ideas for when my stuff arrives. Looks like 4-6 weeks for that to happen.

I did this also used the C5 parking break had to make everything myself and took several iterations to get it to work like I wanted. I am an engineer and also run a machine shop so I was able to make it all work. It will be difficult to do this if you don't have a machine shop to use.

I have a lathe and access to a CNC plasma. Most of this is just making sure its all in line but it's never that easy. My rear end build with the brakes will be posted here before the build thread starts.
