Dics Brake Conversion Problem

I have a dana 60 rear end from what i beleive was a f250 or f350 from 78-79 with an 8 lug pattern. I bought disc brake conversion brackets off ebay and was told you need to get the 75 chevy 3/4 rotor, calipers, and bolt pins. The brackets work, the calipers line up but the rotor wont go on all the way. It gets stuck due to part of the inside hitting the hub assembly. Is there a different rotor i can get to make this work, and also work with the other components i have. thanks

Contact the MFG.

You may have to grind out the inside of the disc to make clearance for the hub. But beware of balance issues...
