please search

98-00 brakes are the same as 95-97. 4piston opposed caliper, 2pc aluminum.

to do the swap you need:
-wheels made to clear bbk
-95-00 LS400 front lower ball joints
-95-00 LS400 calipers, rotors, pads, and shims
and maybe, can't remember, the 95-00 LS400 mounting bolts.

Sorry for the old thread bump, but I'm assuming this is just for the fronts. What about rears?

'95-00 LS have pretty much the same sized brakes in the rear as the 1st gen cars, possibly a minor increase. it hasnt been confirmed, but should be interchangeable.
