Re: how to tell if your spindles ahould have 1.00 or 1.25 rotors
The 1" spindle bearing are a lot smaller, the diameter of the rear bearing surface on the 1.25" is 1.375'' the 1" is 1.245" according to the spindles I have laying around... My truck had one 1" shindle and rotor and one 1.25" spindle and rotor and it had 1" calipers so needless to say I had fun figuring everything out on my truck...

The 1.25 inner bearing is an A5, the 1" rotor bearing is an A6 buy one or the other and see which fits or doesn't. Or measure the spindle with 6" calipers or micrometer.

Another tip off is the 1.25" equipped trucks used 2 3/4" rear shoes while the light duty used 2" shoes.

From info I searched, it seemed those brakes were typically on burbs or ordered as an option.

Thanks, I don't have the original rear end nor drums but I just bought the smaller bearings and figured if it fits it drives
