Re: My whole braking system - thinking out loud

I have found another rotor that might work on the rear. It's the front rotor for an AWD Astro Van. They are 11.61" diameter, 1.29" thick and they have the 5 x 5" bolt pattern. The only drawback is that they are kind of deep.....1" deeper than the Lincoln or Impala SS rotors. So that may present some issues in fabricating a caliper bracket, don't know just yet. I have a parts Astro here that I'm going to pull a rotor off of tomorrow so I can mock it up and see how it looks. Do you guys have any thoughts on this thicker rotor?
