[DeTomaso] MUSTANG ROTORS - WAS: Which Loctite

[Ian H]

I don't think that would work as the Pantera studs are made for a two piece rotor and have two seperate shoulders one knurled and one smooth.  The smooth one is toward the base of the stud and the knurled one toward the threads.  If you pressed it in all the way on a one piece it wouldn't engage the knurled part or if you pressed it in so that the knurled part is in the hole then the stud would not be seated against the back of the hub.  Also if it was pressed in all the way I think the stud would be too long. 

Take a look on Wilkinsons site at a picture of the stud and it will be aparent........I think.

    That's fine if your Mustang Rotor/hub is two seperate pieces like the
    Pantera rotor, but if you have one piece design where the rotor and hub are
    cast as one piece (like I bought) then they won't work.



  Are you sure?  I believe several other people have successfully installed the one-piece rotor/hub assembly from the Mustang?  Just had to tap the studs out and swap 'em over, and use a Mustang bearing cover.

  Right?
