Rare 1969/1970 88 and 98 Front Hubs and Disc Rotors

Would like a pair of rare 1969/1970 88/98 Front hubs and rotors. If anyone is parting out and come across these hubs/rotors, please contact me. Thank you.

Do you really need the hubs or just new rotors? If the latter, read this thread.

Actually need the hubs. Already have a pair of new milled "Camaro rotors". Thank you for your attention.

Looking for rotors and hubs!

I have a 1970 Oldsmobile 98 2 door convertible that has been in the shop for 6 months. Waiting on rotors and hubs! I have one usable hub! The other is cracked. Curious about the Camaro rotors you have? Do you have any details about the Camaro rotors so I can research how to make them work?
Please and thank you!

See my response to your other post (that I have moved to it's own thread).

B body front brakes

I have an entire front disc setup on 69
and possubly some etra pieces

​​​​​70 toro complete front disc brakes also

Will look & see what extras there are but rather sell systems complete

Worse case scenario , have multiple B body drum brake setups one could install until such a time that all your disc parts are located

You need the hubs from a 1969-70 with disc brakes ONLY. Others are different.

Joe Ferro,
Finally got back online so here is the scoop. Check this thread about 2000 Camaro Front rotors (NAPA p/n 4886641). The rotor's hub hole needs to be machined larger and also re drilled for the 5 on 5 bolt pattern. This works only for 69-70 front disc brakes due to sliding calibers vice fixed calibers (67-68). The above mentioned thread has excellent information that explains this. Reminder, this is only the rotor and does not include the hub assembly.

The CTS rotors actually have an offset that is nearly identical to that of the OEM 69-70 Olds rotors. The Camaro rotors have an offset closer to that of the 67-68 rotors used with the four piston calipers. The reality is that the sliding calipers on the 69-70 cars can accommodate this difference, but I spent a lot of time researching this and the CTS rotors are closer to OEM. The machining costs are exactly the same. The costs of the rotors are comparable. In Raybestos brand, the CTS rotors are about $24 each at RockAuto, the Camaro rotors are about $28 each. You'll likely never feel a difference either way.
