    front rotors with hub

    Hi im restoring a 66 coupe with a inline 6 and four lug, I bought a original v8 spindle for a 66 but am having issues finding dust shields and rotors with hubs. If anyone can point me in the right direction it would be great. Thanks

    I bought this kit a few years back.  Very satisfied.  http://www.discbrakeswap.com/Mustang%20Disc%20.html

    Chockostang, on ebay, also has a good reputation.

    Re: front rotors with hub

    Do you want  4-lug or 5-lug brakes? Are you going with a kit or you going to do it yourself?

     SSBC makes a kit for each.  It comes complete with everything you need, and the 5-lug version is an exact duplicate of the stock 11" K-H disks that came with the car.  Many Mustang suppliers also sell kits.  However you can buy most of the parts from your local parts store, except for the caliper mount.  I'm not sure where you can get those by themselves.  Many do it themselves with Granada brakes, but you have to know which ones to buy.  You might look on MS's Tech info section on how to install Granada brakes.

    My friend and I made a four lug set up using Altima rotors and calipers off an 01 and had rotor centering rings made.  This will fit 14" rims.  If you go ssbc or disc brake swap it will fit some 14" rims and bigger.  Ms kit fits 17" +.

    NPD used to have the stock KH caliper mounting brackets. Check their catalog.

    It sounds to me like he's trying to replace the stock 6 cyl brakes with v8 brakes. He bought v8 spindles but can't locate the hubs and other items to complete the swap.
