I fawking searched :flipoff2: Oh Sorry, Just getting prepared! :D

Anyone have a Clue if there is a 5x5.5 rotor out there that will fit a 78ish front dana 44 waggy??? I have tried two different ford rotors that almost fit, but would still require me to have a machine shop open in the inside of the rotor or mill the out side of the hub, I would prefer not to do this if poss.

Thanks for any info you can provide.

If you honestly searched and couldnt find it then it wont work on your rig.

did you try using the ford hub as well. it seems its the 76'-85'. I just looked this up the other night.(on the bulleten board had to word it several ways and extend the time line of the search to over a year back.) it looks like their is a bearing change as well,not to sure though.

Thats the only way I have been suggested in a past post.
If you were able to redrill the hub, is there any reason you can't redrill the rotor?:confused:

Safety was my only concern, 2 of the 5 bolt holes encroch on 2 of the orginal holes, It's not that big of a deal, just wondering.
