Trick question? disc brakes came in in 73

But yes, the rotors would be 8 on 6.5" and the calipers will work if you fab the right brackets............

Sorry I didn't make that too clear.

3/4 ton 4x4 Chevy Rotors will go on a Dana 60 8 lug rear or a 14 bolt.

Yes there is. You can' t use a 2wd rotor because it is a one piece design with hub. The 4wd rotor is a 2 piece design which has a huge hole in the center to fit over the hub.
