Re: [Amc-list] Cheap brake conversion



The 70's W100's had no hub protusion and 5X4.5" bolt pattern.
Pretty lame for a truck huh?
The thing that may screw the pooch on the rotor working is that it mounts to the back of the hub on the 4X4 100
Not sure how well it is machined or made but we'll see when it gets here what it looks like.
