How can I tell what rotors I have without pulling the rotor off and looking at it. I seen that the 81 CJ7 came with a hub assmbley style and a regular style rotor

If you don't want to pull the rotor off you might ask it which style it its.Originally Posted by donald

LOL!!!
No for real! I am in Afghanistan and my father has my Jeep and I am trying to order the correct parts for the thing so he can install them for me.
I think the hub assembly style has the cast hub included as part of the rotor where as the regular type is replaced by pressing or pounding the wheel studs out and removing it from the rotor. He should be able to tell by pulling the wheel of and seeing if the rotor and the cast hub assembly are two separate parts. Dont take my word for it but that is how I remember it. someone who knows for sure is bound to come along soon
80-up (if it's original), would have the small brakes. Not sure of the diameter, but 7/8" (.875") thick. You can verify this by looking at the caliper bracket. It should be bolted to the knuckle with 2 bolts. Like said above, they are 2 piece. Once the lug bolts are pressed out, the rotor will separate from the hub.
