Message:		I'm installing disc brakes to the front of my 63 and have run into a problem with hubs/rotor fit.I bought the brackets from scarebird and also following article from classic trucking mag. As per article they say some hubs need to be turned down on the outer edge to fit inside rotors but mine were already smaller and fit inside rotors but to loose.There is no way to center rotors.I contacted scarebird and he had no answers.The rotors have 3 tapped holes in face so if I could center rotors and drill hole in hub and connect the two with bolts from the backside,or would anyone recommend welding up the outer edge of the hubs and then turning it fit rotors?Not sure about welding on hubs.Another guy said to use larger studs but can't because I have mag rims.Anyone else have this problem?Any ideas?.....pat
