Hey all,
I just got a couple front brake rotors for my 79 2WD from ebay. They were not the same though. one was correct with the min thickness of 16.6 mm inscribed on the hub but the other says min thickness 11.1 mm and it is a bit wider in diameter (besides being a lot thinner). It has 6 lug nut holes. anyone know what it might fit on???

rock on!

I have noticed this as well, I think some where around 78 the changed the thickness.

Hey redluv,
I am not sure what a vented rotor would look like, is that the ones with holes drilled through them? It doesn't have the vent holes, but I figured out what it is for. Someone was selling the same part on ebay (same part number and manufacturer):

10.25 INCH DIAMETER

Part#: 8-94224-172-0
Manufacturer: MOUNTAIN
Part Type: FRONT BRAKE ROTOR

The guy that sent it to me said to keep it. It won't fit my 79, so I am about to post it to the classifieds for whoever can use it. rock on!

Vented would have basically flat areas for the pads to hit(inner and outer) connected by thin strips of metal. So if you look at the end it would look like a vent. The ones that you are talking about (holes drilled in them) are referred to cross drilled.
