You know, what is amazing is that for all this timemost of us never thought to realize that we have a truly sweet front spindle setup!
It allows and almost endless variety of front discs to be installed.
All it takes is the time to figure out what you personally want.
I have a set of plates I bought a while back.
They mount 82-88ish XJ, Concord,Eagle calipers over WJ rotors redrilled to 4.5" bolt pattern.
Not as neat or trendy as some of the stuff out there, but a nice setup.
I've never actually got around to installing them though!
I've got all the stuff here, jsut went for a bike ride and never got back to it!
