rod_b Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 I know this has probably been answered and I searched but I couldn't find it. I need new rotors for my 96 R50. I ordered some from eBay (I know, first mistake) and they are a little more than 11" in diameter. I thought I read somewhere in here that the 96-99.5 R50s used a 10.8" diameter rotor. When I took my tires off, it did seem like the rotors were about 10.8 or so but when I called the place to get the right rotors, they told me that what they sent me is correct, that the 99.5+ R50s used an 11.8" rotor and the 95 and older Pathys used the 10.8" rotor. Can someone please help me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pezzy Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 I don't know the actual sizing, but I believe the 96-99 pathys have smaller rotors than the 99.5-04's - even though they are essentially the same truck/generation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 96-99 used a different rotor than the 99.5+ That's for sure. If you've got rotors for a 99.5, you've got the wrong ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pezzy Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 is there an echo in here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rod_b Posted October 16, 2007 Author Share Posted October 16, 2007 The ones I was sent were supposedly the ones for 96-99, but they are 11.2" in diameter and I just need to know if anyone know if these are the right size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zonianbrat Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 Just call any brake shop around town. Most usually have them in stock and can tell you what size they are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rod_b Posted October 17, 2007 Author Share Posted October 17, 2007 Ok, well if anyone needs to know...11.2 fits for 96-99 R50. Man, what a headache that was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FUELER Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 My 99.5 uses rotors just over 11" i'll go get the part number from my garage in a bit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nissandoms47 Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 its 01+ that used the 11.8" rotors. I did the swap on my 96 pathy. Went with some drilled rotors off ebay meant for the VQ pathy and bought some junkyard calipers and caliper brackets. You need to drill out the hole on the spindle to fit the bigger brackets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
systemf Posted October 24, 2007 Share Posted October 24, 2007 There are different rotors sizes across the board for R50s. Not to mention the obvious 99/99.5 rotor size difference: It looks like there are several size breaks for early R50s to 99 10/95 - 08/97 have one size part number 40206-0W001- 08/97 - 12/98 have another size part number 40206-1W200- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
