Sell em!I guess it's always possible, but I have no experience with those. I have a buyer(s) for my wheels, I just have to slow down and think about this

Ray they sent some hub rings with my kit. I don’t need them. What OD/ID do you need I’ll check what I have.

Yes, but then the register would be too big for the rotors. Pretty much all disc brake people run 3.06” or smaller rotor register. Nobody makes a rotor (in what I wanted) for the giant truck register. So easier to run an adapter for drums.
Thanks Gary, I have some too but they are for 3.06 and smaller.

Couldn’t you just have the rotor opened up?
I guess either machine the rotor or make a spacer. I wanted the spacer that way when I replace rotors (due to wear) I don’t have to go through it all again.

I guess your looking at it from a disc brake perspective and I’m looking at it from a drum brake perspective.
I wonder how often the rear discs would need to be replaced? Rear brakes usually last much longer then fronts.

Yeah exactly lol.
Alright, still a lot of work to do, but got it back on all 4 wheels for now. It is absolutely lower than before especially in the rear and it has a slight rake in the wrong direction for my taste. However as I was bouncing the front end I could hear the tires scrubbing a bit on the floor so hopefully those front springs will settle a bit, if not I will raise it one notch in the rear shackle.
I need to push it outside and clean it up (along with all my trucks, the garage, and the yard so no judging! LOL) to get better pics, but here is how it is now. I think the pics make it look higher in the front than it really is.

Ray, these are the brakes I was talking about. He is a member here. Uses E150 rotor and SN95 calipers.

I had a problem similar to this with the Cadillac. To clear a 15" wheel, you need around a 11" rotar. Pretty small. Guys were using a Sprinter rotar and still struggling to get it to work and be worth the effort...
