Hey guys tried to post this in the 79 area but not having any luck. I'm in the process of doing the rear disc brake conversion but I need to replace my wheelstuds. I bought the Doorman brand ones but the shoulder is just a bit tappered and will not hold the rotor to the rear hub. Any suggestions on a wheel stud from another vehicle that may work?

 

What rear rotors? You might try for a 77 chevy 3/4 ton front, common rotors for disk conversion.

 

I have the 3/4 ton front Chevy rotors.

 

Id go to you local autoparts store with one rotor in hand and keep trying them until one works. I dont have the napa part number in front of me right now.

 

Hi - Are your old backing plates and shoes the 12" x 2 1/2"? If they're not too rusty and worn out would you sell them to me? I need the backing plates and all the associated hardware but not the drums.

 

hemidevin,
I have already sent them out to another menber. Sorry he beat you too it.

 

Thanks for the reply. Glad someone got them and can use them.
