    What are these off of????????

     



    I bought these rotors along with chrome spindles and calipers a while back (used) and we are going to use them on my Kids T bucket. The rest is in nice shape, but he wants to replace the rotors. However, they are not like any of the mid size Chevy ones we have been able to find at the auto parts store. They have a unique "hat" that bolts onto the rotor from the back, and all the other ones we see have just the end of the rotor there.

    I know they are some GM product, but what???? Any body seen these before??


    Thanks,


    Don

    Also, in your last photo, if you look close, you may still be able to see the rotor numbers.

    Really super info Pat. What was throwing us was those hats. Do the replacement one piece units have the same offset, because it looks like these would move the wheels out further?

    They look like they could be turned and blasted, so maybe we'll reuse them if possible.

    Don

    PS, I called my Kid and told him, and he was amazed we had an answer so fast. lol
