Trying to find information on doing 5 lug conversion with Rear disc. So far, I can only find info on doing 5 lug swap with rear drum. I already have rear disc, but in four lug. I have about a 9" rear rotor, and am hoping I can just swap axles and rotors, and leave the caliper alone. Tried using mark 7 parts, but axles about 2" too long, and rear rotors are 11.25" Any ideas?

Is there a reason why you want to run such a small rear rotor? I upgraded mine to 10" because a 5-lug upgrade is just that, an upgrade

It might already be a 10", I havent measured it, I just know its a lot smaller looking than the 11.25" Lincoln rotor. I think I may have figured it out- doing the "flipped Lincoln brakckets, calipers, and rotors" from the other five lug conversion post.
