Some Brake Questions and Opinions

Hello Everyone.

I have the chance to get some 3'' drop spindles locally and delivered for a really good price.


But they are for 1.25 rotors, Im currently running 1.00 rotors.


Im planning on transplanting a decent HP setup into this longbed someday. So bigger brakes could never hurt !! ahahaa


My main question is about the 1.25 rotors and caliper assembly.

What all do I need to swap out ? Im assuming at the least the rotors, wheel bearings, spindle jam nut, calipers, caliper bolts and possibly the brakelines ?

Any difffernce in offset's or anything like that

Im planning on getting the calipers and bolts/misc stuff at the local pick a part. The rotors will be purchased new.



Thanks for the help guys.


Hopefully this weekend I can start the part collecting
