: using font d44 calipers/rotors etc for rear discs on d60? zstrange 01-29-2002, 11:50 AM i have calipers/rotors/mounts from a front d44. is there any reason i cant make these work on my rear d60? i realize ill probably have to enlarge the hole in disc/mount and i guess redrill for 8 lug, is there anything else? am i overlooking something obvious that will prevent me from doing this(or make it cost prohibitive)? thanks in advance The Rockslut 01-29-2002, 12:18 PM The calipers will work, the caliper mounts can be modified to work but the 6 or 5 lug rotors will not. You will need 8 lug rotors. The 5/6 lug rotors do not have a big enough hat area to redrill them to 8 lug. redruM 01-29-2002, 12:25 PM this makes me wonder can i use D44 calipers on my D60 rotors so i wont have to grind so much on D60 calipers to fit 15" wheels ??????????????????????????

You can..but you need custom caliper brackets...I'm having this done on my RC60 next week.... redruM 01-29-2002, 12:41 PM scout dude... do you have to grind the 44 calipers at all to put 15" wheels on ??? brector 01-29-2002, 12:49 PM You don't need custom caliper brackets - you can use 3/4 ton chevy 44 ones: brector 01-29-2002, 12:51 PM Originally posted by redruM scout dude... do you have to grind the 44 calipers at all to put 15" wheels on ??? No. Just 60 calipers. TR 01-29-2002, 12:57 PM umm you can get some front disks off a IFS 3/4 chevy and use some dana 44 calipers. | |
