Hi,

I have the project to do the rear brake disc conversion.
My truck has the Z71 package wich includes, if I'm right, 11" drums and is a 6 lugs semi-float with 9.5 ring (14 bolts rear end).

It seems blackbirdcustom is at the moment redesigning a kit for these.
The guy I contacted at blackbirdcustoms need to know what's the measurement is from the face of the axle where the drum slides on to the face of the backing plate flange is.

As being a semi-float, it should be quite simple to pull out my drum and measure that, but, I'm a bit suspicious about drums and do not want to get stuck because the drum doesn't want to fit back then.

Any of you knows that measurement or has a 6 lugs semi float rear end down and can take that measurement ?

Thanks for help.
