Re: Rotors
The front rotors you can go with Cpp 12 inch rotors they are 1 1/4 thick.They will be a direct bolt on to a dropped spindal.If you need the spindals we have them in stock and rotors and the wilwood d52 calipers.If you would like a price you can e-mail us or p/m us

Re: Rotors
Depending on the year of the truck, the later 73-87 truck spindles have a light duty 1" rotor and a heavy duty with a 1.250" rotor. If you want to run the larger rotors to match the rear, make sure you get the spindle accordingly so that the rotor will line up with the caliper mounting ears. If you're running an early model truck, then you'll want to convert the ball joint to match the year of the spindle.
Depending on what you're looking to do with the brake system, we can surely help you out. We're a dealer for numerous brake and spindle companies, check us out or send us a message for more info. http://www.porterbuiltfabrication.com .

Re: Rotors
Cpp only carries 1 1/4 thick rotors for the trucks period on the front.You can run a cpp dropped spindal for a 63-70 with the stock ball joints and there 1 1/4 thick rotor.This will be a direct bolt on.You can use your stock ball joints.The same follows for 71-72 and 73-87 chevy or gmc trucks
We only carry Cpp rotors and spindals for this set up |

Re: Rotors
Just remember,... if you change your 1" rotors to 1.25" rotors you will have to change the spindles, calipers, and the bearings.
(one bearing is different. I can't remember if it's the inner or outer bearing)
