59bisquik Posted May 10, 2020 Report Share Posted May 10, 2020 I got the 718-8235 studs from Jegs. 1/2''-20 x 1-1/2" .615'' Knurl. Then grab a 39/64" drill bit. If your gonna put the disc on the stock hub, I have heard you should have it milled to make sure its flat or the disc can wobble and spread the pads. Somebody did that mod on here before and suggested it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jj1981 Posted May 11, 2020 Author Report Share Posted May 11, 2020 I found the ones in the second pic are 1.915 inches long. The pads seem to hold true so far Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
59bisquik Posted May 11, 2020 Report Share Posted May 11, 2020 Those should work. They have plenty enough threads to run aluminum wheels too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jj1981 Posted May 12, 2020 Author Report Share Posted May 12, 2020 I’m still working it out but the rotors fit perfect. I’m experimenting with a few different calipers but so far so good . I did the Jeep master cylinder swap too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
