1972 5x5 to 5x4.75 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I know this has been asked 1,000,000 times. I searched and searched and cant seem to find a answer. What rotor(if any) can I put on my 72 to make it 5x4.75? I want to put Billet Specialties and they don't make 5x5. Thank you for any help..

1) Redrill current rotors, or 2) Use 73-87 light duty (1" thick rotor) spindles with 88-92 Camaro 1LE rotors, or 3) you can upgrade to big brake kits like CPP or Kore that offer car bolt pattern. There is no bolt on rotor for your current setup with 5x4.75 bp.

Seems like I heard some of the G10 chevy vans will bolt on and are 5 x 4.75". I'll see if I can find any info.
