Re: 6 lug rotors

That is way to complicated of a question w/o providing a lot more information.
I am going to "assume" that you are talking about 2 wheel drive....because you didn't say one way or the other.

So, in a word.....no.
Even swapping the '85 spindles to the '70 control arms would take some modification. The rotors are a completely different story.....metric to start with....and on from there.
Is there some reason you are looking for the six lug route? most guys are looking to go the opposite direction.

Re: 6 lug rotors

If you want 6-lug rotors, just get them from one of the board supporting vendors. They will bolt directly in place of OE disc brake 71-87 5-lug rotors.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
