Re: McGaughys 13" Front Brake Kit Interchange Parts

On the rear kit the problem is the center bore where the rotor fits over the axle. I had to get my Moser 5 lug conversion axles machined down a little to fit. It's not a lot, basically just shaved maybe a 1/16 to get the rotor to fit.

Another bit of input doing the rear kit if you use AC Delco part number 18P5 for the emergency brake cable it will fit perfectly. You can use the OE parts and adjustment rod, I had stock trailing arms on the truck I put together. ~7" static drop. With that em brake cable it had plenty of adjustment so if it needed .75" more or so you'd be fine.

The only issue I had with the MCGaughys stuff is the wheel studs are really short. Dorman 610-298.1 works nicely. I was running Billet Specialties if it matters.
