front brake rotor thickness
When measuring the rotors you measure thickness but what if the rotors have been cut?How can you tell what you have?I ordered a set of cpp modular spindels for my 87 and told vendor I had 1" thick rotors and got a call back that they woudn't work because the spindle is for 1.25" rotors only.What would I have to change to make these spindels work.Can I just change the rotors and bearings and use my calipers,pads,and all the other things along with it.

Re: front brake rotor thickness
Calipers match the rotors. You could reuse the pads but why? New rotors ought to get new pads and your already there.

Re: front brake rotor thickness
Calipers, rotors, spindles, and bearings all have to match.

Re: front brake rotor thickness
I completely understand what you mean about putting new pads.My thing is I only want to spend the money once on spindels that i can upgrade to a wilwood big break set up in the future.I want to run all my facory brake system with 15"ralleys being that i dont have the funds for new wheels and the brake kit at the moment.
