Title: 1" to 1.25" Rotor Swap
Post by: Pushrods on October 26, 2011, 10:51:34 am

I recently acquired two sets of lowering spindles. One of them is for use with the 1" rotor and the other for the 1.25" rotors. For performance/warping reasons I would elect to go with the 1.25" rotors if they were compatible with the 1" calipers that are factory on my '86 C10. Has anyone run into this? I have calipers and rotors that came with the 1.25" spindles, but I'm hoping I can just slap the spindles, and rotors on and not have to mess with the calipers. Possible?? Thanks...

The calipers are different AFAIK.  All 1973-1980's were 1.25" BTW.
