Different bolt pattern?
Is anyone aware of front brake roters that will interchange with the stock calipers to change the wheel bolt pattern? The wheels I'd like to put on are only made in 4.25, 4.5 and 4.75 spacing. The 65 thru 96 F100/150 have 5.5 spacing. Adapters will space the wheels out too far on the front, Thanks.

You may want to check this out in the newer forum but I remember something about the ’80, ’81 F100 w/ the six cylinder engine had a 5 on 4.5 pattern for some strange reason.

Thanks 3b. I found a recent post there that says there was a Mustang 4.25 spacing used in the years you mentioned. I'll check a parts store to confirm, but a 4.25 is too small for the wheels I want to get, if the post is accurate. Goodfoot
74 short bed, black original paint with red interior, red 302 roller motor with Edlebrock manifold and 600 cfm carb, Lokar shifter and 4 spoke sprint car steering wheel, Bardahl graffics. Offy valve covers are in the works. Halibrand Sprint wheels if I hit the lotto or Edlebrock 426's if I can get a bolt pattern that works with them.

Small pattern roters are 4.25" but they are substantially different and I would have to change the whole spindle assembly. I'll live with my old wheels for now. Thanks, JJGII
