12530703 Wheel Brake Cylinder/Caliper Hardware GUIDE PIN BOOT
22163795 Banjo Bolt BANJO BOLT

You need 2 hoses, also, the Z06 pads come with the rattle shims you will need. I like the Z06 pads pretty well, but haven't put very many miles on them.

Just keep in mind that you'll need four of the washers, two banjo bolts, four guide pins and boots, and two abutment brackets.

Good deal...thx!

I'll be sure to order the correct quantity of those parts.

Probably GM Parts Direct would be the best place for those.
