Default Will Z51 front rotor fit on my rear Z06?

The above thread mentions the Z51 fronts are 13.4 x 1.25

The Z06 rears are 13.4 x 1

Will the Z51s fit the rear on a Z06 (if my pads are already worn a bit?)

Isn't the parking brake hat missing on the front rotors?

Yes, they will fit. Yes, you will have to lose your parking brake and about 5 lbs of cable and brackets.

Win/Win!

The only thing I use my parking brake for is to get the vehicle registered. Wish I could ditch it.
