When I bought the Mustang brake pieces at my local O'Reilys, the kit came
with a one piece rotor and hat connected via studs to a separate hub. I
removed the studs to separate the hub and the replaced with the Pantera hub
and studs.
Perhaps this is the combo that you believe no longer exists. However, I
figured I would clarify the application as their seems to be three different
things people are describing.
The advantage of O'Reilys is that the rotors have a lifetime warranty.
Admittedly, if they combo is no longer made, a lot of good that warranty is.
J, running vented Mustang rotors on all four corners and learned it from
