Help please

I have a 2004 F150 Lariat which needs the front rotors replacing. Problem I have in the UK is that all the suppliers say the wheel is only five stud, when in fact they change dit to six stud for 2004. Can anyone give the part number for the six lug rotor?

Help,

Fred

When a parts store/supplier looks up your make, model, and year the computer should TELL them it's a SIX LUG application. If they say that all they can find is 5 lug, then they are looking up the wrong year or hit 1994 or some other mistake. If they can't help you with your 04, try having them look up an 03 Expedition, that's 6 lug and should be your exact pattern. I personally would order new ones from somewhere on the internet and not deal with those idiots at all, especially when they can walk up to your truck and count 6 lugs. Good luck.

By the way, different suppliers may have different part numbers that cross reference with Ford's stock part number. I.E. Brembo's part #'s don't match Baer's or FORD's and so on. The supplier should be able to look up any part # for any replacement part for your truck with just your make, model, & year.

Thanx Rockafella,

Problem in th eUK is that we don't have any US Ford dealers. I imported the F150 from Canada. We do however have US Autpoparts suppliers. I've found one who is getting me the six lug rotor, so thank goodness. Teach me to drive metal on metal for a couple of miles!!!
