dually disc brake rotor swap for a 72 c30.

I have a 72 c30 dually. Can 8 lug non dually front rotors be used on the dually spindles? Would the caliper placement be the same?

Thanks, Mark

I believe it can be done but you would have to use wheels for single rear wheels. The spaceing is all different.

No, the caliper mount and I believe the thickness of the rotor is different. The biggest issue is the caliper mounting. Swapping the spindle is super easy though
