Researching rotors and calipers for the axle swaps in my Camaros, I found something to test fit on this when I swap the standard differential out for a Traction-Lock I bought.
The Explorer rear discs aren't vented, and use a tiny internal drum parking brake. I'm hoping to combine '82 Corvette rear rotors, at 11.75" x 1.25", with '76 Cadillac Eldorado rear calipers. This should fit inside the 16" wheels, eliminate the micro-size drums, and should clear the leafsprings if I clock the custom mounting brackets correctly. Then everything else in the new rear brakes should work like the '84 Pontiac Trans Am WS6 stuff I'm familiar with.
Front brakes yet to be considered, but probably well over 12".
