Re: 80 CJ7 Spindle nut size?
 

The primary difference in the rotors is if they have 5 or 6 bolts to hold
the hubs on. The 6 bolt variety is preferred, and there can be strong
arguments that say if you have the 5 bolt variety, then it is worth the
extra money to get the 6 bolt style now. The money difference is for the
cost of the 6 bolt locking hubs, the rotor assemblies should be nearly the
same cost.
