1.00 to 1.25 rotors
Not exactly sure which my truck has but just confirming that going from 1" to 1.25" rotors would require calipers, spindles, rotors? Anthing i'm missing? Going to be ordering drop spindles, and it seems that 1.25" rotor spindles are alot cheaper than spindles with 1" spindles. Any pros/cons from going one way or the other? Thanks again

One of the rotor bearings is different also. The only reason I went with 1" rotor/spindle combo, was to allow a "bolt-on" install (no grinding) of my Boss 338 wheels. Other than that,... I see no advantage of using 1" Light Duty Rotors over the HD 1-1/4" rotors.

1.25 drop spindles 1.25 rotors 1.25 calipers 1.25 caliper brake hoses correct pads the brake hoses i bought from a local parts place they needed to be slightly bent at the banjo fitting to fit flush on the caliper was no big deal i locked them in a vice then bent them a "little" for the proper clearance every thing else was plug and play Quote:
