Thanks,

69 inches according to the info in Pirate4x4's Bible. Look under "GM front ends." I expect 1/2 ton and 3/4 ton front D44s have the same wms because the different hubs have the same wms offset for the rotor mounting surface and the rotors are the same thickness at the wms.

Thanks for the info,
and a measurement from an actual K20 would be the best there is.

Look forward to the specs.

Thanks,
