McGaughys 6 lug rotors

My truck has McGaughy's 6 lug disc brake setup. I'm tired of the rims I have and the option of 5 lugs are just so much greater. Does anyone know if there is a compatible 5 lug rotor that will fit on the McGaughy's drop spindle that came with the 6 lug rotors? Thanks.

Oh they are the 1.25 thick rotors

Re: McGaughys 6 lug rotors

If they used stock style spindles, which I don't know why the wouldn't have, you can go to any parts store like advance auto and get 5 lug rotors for a 71 or 72 truck for around $35 each. Of course, that is assuming your rotors are the same thickness as stock for the calipers... I'm sure someone will know for sure....

Re: McGaughys 6 lug rotors

i heard some bad stuff about their products this past weekend WRT their spindles. after hearing that, i'd be wary of buying anything they make.
