Stock front disk turned to a Hub for conversion?

[LowBuckX]

I read a while back but I cant find it. It seems someone was cutting off the disc part of the stock rotors and using whats left as a hub. What conversion is this and where can I find info???

It's not my idea but this is what I'm doing on the Bad Ast Project. I can't find the original site. I had it bookmarked but it's dead in the water.
It's an easy conversion so if you have any questions ask away.

Would you like a pair?? I modified a pair (Well, had a machine shop do them for me). I also had the studs pressed out. They just need new studs pressed in. I have very little into them, if you are interested, let me know. I am going a new route with a Wayne Due or 21st Century Street Machines C4/5 subframe. I also have a pair of spindles modded as well... Email me at [email protected] if you are interested. I have everything minus the C5 calipers and carriers (I am keeping those to use them, but they can be found fairly inexpensively), including the instructions, caliper brackets, etc.

I have done a conversion like this. I have some info on my page. http://www.buffnet.net/~airrj/CBB%20Construction.html

If you have any other questions I will try to help you out.

It is very easy to do. I am just finishing an LS1 brake upgrade to a 2nd gen and decided to just us the stock disk hubs. I started the cut 1/8" in back of the casting line and then had a brake shop turn the hub flange down. A fair amount of metal has to be taken off though (pic shows the two hubs together). It does push out the rotor about 1/8" over a drum hub, but a spacer does the trick.

Hope that helps.
