Give Buffalo a call out in Wash. State. Neat ol guy and a great product. I have them on my 48. 73-87 4WD rotors, 53 up hubs and 73ish big car calipers. Stops great.

just got off the phone with steve at buffalo ent. and his prices are great but he is 30 days out, brackets are "made to order" and were trying to get this back on the road sooner. gonna have to keep checking around.

Any conversion that uses the common 5 on 5" truck rotor can also use the aftermarket 6 lug rotors. They are available from most of the usual vendors like CPP, ECE, Performance Online, etc.
