Brakes needed

I had places an order through broncograveyard.com and the brakes I need have been on back order for over a month. I don't wanna use auto zone cuz they are ungodly expensive. So is there any other places, online, that I can get brakes from? Broncograveyard wanted 109 n auto zone wants freakin 195 A PIECE!! Its a 86 f250. I believe its got the Dana 44. Need rotor n hub all in one.

Whats wrong with your old hub? you can replace just the rotor.

You should be able to knock the wheel studs out then separate the hub from the rotor, part# 5445 at autozone

Or have a machine shop install a new rotor and check (turn ) it after wards. Did you check Rock Auto?

All the ones I've looked at have the rotor and hub as one piece. So ur saying I just knock the studs out and it'll seperate? And no, I haven't checked rock auto. Ill get on that.

Yes, you'll need to beat on the old rotor with a BFH to seperate it from the hub, the new one will slide right on. Drive the studs back in and reinstall. No need to machine the new rotor.
