15-inch front brake rotors

I think U-joint has them in his van.

Does anyone know a source for 15-inch brake rotors with the 8x6.5 bolt pattern?

Couldn't find one so I made my own, not quite 15" but 14.235" dia with F450/550 calipers.

Awesome work on the brakes....too bad you'd need either crazy offset or a huge wheel to make it fit. I'd love to upgrade the brakes on Boomer but going to 20" wheels won't ever be in the cards with this rig, and I can't afford any more offset Great work though...

Looks good, just saw this thread. So are those the F550 or P30 rotors?

Chris, those are 80's P30 rotors. Thanks for your past guidance (If you remember I almost did an IFS 4x4 conversion :-(. It took me a while to do the D60 planning and install but it turned out very well. The RV drives terrific, very solid even with my own much-criticised unique high-steer setup I couldn't ask for more.

Good deal, and good job on the conversion!! Nice to see things getting done.
