Nbs 14 bolt 9.5 brake options?????
I've looked at several of the threads about the 14 bolt swaps but nothing has really helped. I broke my 10 bolt for the second time so i figured i would up grade. I got a 99-07 9.5" 14 bolt 8-lug w/ disc brakes that i had the axles turned and redrilled to a six lug bolt pattern. I have a baer big brake kit on my truck and i would like to keep them but the flange on 14 bolt is not like the older 14 bolts where they will just bolt on. My baer brakes are 14" I believe and the stock 8 lug rotor is 13 i believe. So what options do i have for disc brakes for the newer 9.5 14 bolt?

You got a picture of your bracket you made? It would of been easier if I would of found an older 14 bolt But I got this Newer one with an eaton E-locker for 400 bucks. I'm definitely going to try and use the 10 bolt brakes and rotors. I looked at my some performance rotors so I could still use the 2 piston caliber but that **** is high!! I looked at some 6 piston caliber setups and they want like 4k for them.

sorry didnt take a pic but basically i just went to the machine shop and showed them the flange on the axle and we took measurements and they made two new ones and then we welded them on in the correct place. really should have taken better pics but i was doing an 80e swap to and didn't want to cut the driveshaft twice so i just slapped it in to get the measurements for the driveshaft shop

I did the NBS 14 bolt 9.5" swap and bolted on my 10 bolt brakes. I am sure I could swap over my 14" rotors and rotor brackets. Any 10 bolt brake set ups should bolt onto the NBS 14 bolt housing.
Here are some pics and a link to the thread:
