I did some digging and found some of my partial notes on the PG Disk Brakes.

While the M715 disk brake kits will fit the PG, the M715 hub does not space out the tire to sit under the fenders in a proper and cosmetic good looking placement. I am still not sure if PG Wheels will fit the M715 hubs.

I wanted my tire placement correct under the fenders. Thus I had to fab my own. Ray used to list PG disk brake kits, but due to lack of demand, he no longer made them when I was building my PG. I bought the caliper brackets for the Dana 70 axles, loose rotor flanges, wheel spacers from Ray.

Then I proceeded to use my PG Hubs and make my own disk brakes especially for the PG. It worked out fine, but took time. You will need to do quality welding, have access to a machine shop for quality turning and truing. Rotor flange placement mocking up in place, tack welding, then removing and final welding and turning true.

Hope this helps. A double portion of my meds brought this all back. LOL !
