So I have a complete set of Kelsey Hayes small bolt pattern disc brakes to install on my 69 valiant.
Was hoping someone here would know if you can use mustang rotors to change from small bolt pattern. To big pattern and what year rotor to buy

I know Kelsey Hayes caliper were used on other cars as well

Please and thank you in advance for the time you take in answering

There is machining involved on the Mustang rotors and lack of proper fitting seal. Use the search button for more information.
 
1968 Mustang rotors. Inner bearing change then its a direct fit I probably have the #pn. for the bearing. A shim sleeve must be installed on the seal area of the spindle to enlarge the diameter for the mustang inner seal.

I thought the rotor was large (11'') and has to be turned down?
 
Thank you
I can machine so with that article I will be doing it now thank you everyone

Now what do people think about 2" drop spindles

Can you even get drop spindles for the KH brakes?
It kinda depends what size rim/tire you plan on running and how heavy you go with the torsion bars- I think you stand a good chance of some interference on the inner fenderwell and maybe at the lower balljoint.
