Update.. Way too much hassle . what if I find caliper brackets to mount Durango calipers? Seems they have 6x4.5..would definitely rather run all dodge and way less hassle? How or where do I look?

Thank you all for all your response to my post. I'm still learning this forum (site. And on a
phone ) help with caliper brackets to mount Durango calipers? viper?
it's drilled out .5 solid ford explorer pads and rotors is ridiculous. Super nightmare timing on this. Having shaved beyond limits and 2mm left scorned .close to failure. Smelled em today smoking.
I've never done caliper brackets swap. Need dodge 6x4.5 complete brake kit for dana60 Dynatrac axles. And rear did tags were useless..

Are you sure that is a dana 60? If you could show a picture of the diff. cover it would help....... so we could see the bolt pattern.
Any chance what you have is a 9.25 out of a 03 or so dakota or durango? It looks more like that too me. But the pictures you supply are hard to tell much from.





so nice. Yes please allow me to look properly. I will take Accurate information and upload the photos.
and I've only gotten this knowledge by what I've been told. So thank you

That rusty rotor looks good enough to have it turned and reuse it. Is there something else wrong?
The pictures don't help identifying the rotor. Maybe post some clear ones of the rotor by itself.
You probably thought of this and can't do it but I would try to contact the previous owner to ask them what they used just so you know even if you do turn the ones you have and get it on the road.
