Which Kit did you end up with? Did you use a GM rotor or Ford? Did you have to use a spacer? If so where did it go and how thick was it?

 

I used a kit from a company called Allstar Performance.It uses Granada rotors and GM metric calipers like those used from 1978 and up on Malibu's,Cutlas,Regal,etc.They are reasonably priced at about $225.00 for 2 rotors,brackets,calipers,bearings and seals.Their number is 1-800-772-2678 and they are in Michigan.I installed mine on a '56 with a Heidt's x-member,and they wheel are right where they should be.Hope this helps.

Oops, there's those pesky GM names again. Sic 'em CHUCK!

kustom56f100,

Seeing as you're new I'll show mercy and refer you to rule #9 in the following post link. Glad to have you here and fell free to insult us anytime and if you have a quarter.......... well you know what you can do with it but then again at most places you can't call anyone with a quarter.

9. Never mention the use of Ch*vy parts on your trucks. You can use Dodge but not Plymouth (sounds too girly) but NEVER Ch*vy. Trucks are manly things.

John,

Bearings and seal are same on mine. I'm looking hard at that 11 3/4" Torino rotor. All I have to do is sink the outer bearing 1/2" and it will fit perfect. I have talked with Enjenjo and he said he has done this before. I'm also looking at the 99 - 01 Mustang twin puck caliper. Real sweet loolking piece. Easily adapted to Mus II spindle. Doyou know where the Bearing spacer goes when use GM calipers? I'm guesssing it is on the spindle first since it widens the track.
