Mini-truck axles used only solid rotors. If you want a vented rotor, you'll need to get rotors for a FJ60 Land Cruiser and switch the calipers for ones from an IFS truck (86 and up). For increased stopping power, get calipers for a 90-95 V6 4Runner. Those have 2 large pistons instead of one large and one small.

On most later model trucks (81-85), the rotor bolts onto the hub with 2 bolts and the wheel studs are passed through the hub and pressed into the rotor. For these models, you'll need the FJ60 LC rotors with 8 holes. If it's an earlier model, it can still be done, however you'll need a different rotor. I think that one is from a 79/80 LC, but I would have to double check to be sure.
