Confused about disc brake set-up

[joesscamaro]

I'm trying to figure all this brake stuff out, and for some reason, it is not processing in my pea brain. I have a '65 that I'm trying to convert from drum/drum, to power disc/drum. I bought upper and lower ball joints for an '85 thinking that I was going to also convert to 5 lug. I've changed my mind, and I'm going to stay 6 lug. I know the drop spindles for 73-87 will work with these ball joints...but, what year rotors will work that will allow me to keep my 6 lug set-up? I'm going to go with the 2 1/2" CPP drop spindles if I ever figure this stuff out. Thanks in advance!

I believe the rotors that cpp sells in there kits for our truck are 73-87s.... I bought there 2 1/2 dropped spindle disc brake kit with 6 lug rotors.

Aftermarket rotors like these will work with your drop spindles as long as you bought 73-87 spindles for HD 1-1/4" rotors.

That's exactly what I'm looking for lolife. $90 seems steep, but I guess you have to pay to play! I would definitely be ordering the HD spindles. For some reason, I never thought about checking CPP for the 6 lug rotors...haha, I've been working too much lately. My brain is fried! Thanks for the help!
