442 swap out rear end
 
What other rear end would fit under 1977 cutlass 442 that would have disc brakes and would be a bolt up a go situation I'm putting a LS motor in the car.

The rear out of a 94-96 Impala SS should fit (it's essentially the same chassis), but there are myriad kits out there to put discs on the rear that is currently installed in your car.

The rear in your car should be a corporate 10 bolt. If so, it's damned strong. Add a posi, and a nice disc kit, and you're golden.

Ok thanks I talk to wilwood at this time they do not make disc brakes for this rear end thats in the car because it has a pressed on bearing but they did go on to say they have a kit coming out in two months I talk to them four different times about this. So thats why I was asking about a different rear end and I thought it might be cheaper to go this route. Thanks for the info
