I have what I thought was an 82 front disk axle from a 40. I'm redoing it with knuckles from a 60, high steer from 4x4labs, ARB, Longfield inner and outers. I went to NAPA and got rotors pn#4885799 for like $23 a piece. The bolt holes that have the 6 bolts that attach the rotor to the backside of the hub assembly are too large. So I go back to NAPA, the parts guy says that the axle must be older and I need pn#4885678 for $92 a piece. plus freight because they are not in distribution.
More info. The knuckle bolt pattern for the steering arms was the smaller pattern. This probably means it was not a 1982 axle.
Anyone have any advice? I'm thinking of getting the cheaper rotors and drilling/tapping the hub assemblies for larger bolts. They appear to be identical except for the hole diameter.
Thanks in advance, Luke
