I have been doing a little research and the 70's-early 80's one ton single wheel trucks front rotors use the same bearings as our rear hubs.
Has anyone ever tried to fit them on.
My thought would be, a disc brake setup that would use a late model rim.
After my tire lose the other day, it got me thinking.
If you are going to add discs, and at the price of aluminum rims, you might be able to save money on the conversion.

Thoughts?
