[QUOTE="redneckengineered, post: 613855, member: 503"] Turns out there's only one option. The 347mm is the front rotor. The 340mm is for the rear. Be sure when you're shopping for brakes to keep your years between 2005-2012. I use 2006 because according to Reid, they designed their knuckles off the 2005-2007 knuckle. Apparently Ford made some changes after 2007 that shouldn't affect part fitment but still, you never know. Here's an interesting piece of tech I'm pasting from an email I received from Reid. [i] Hi Andrew, On the 8-lug trucks, Ford used one rotor size from 2005-2012, and then from 2012.5 to present they used a larger size. The 10-lug SuperDuty's used an entirely different setup. We based our knuckles off of the solid 2005-2007 knuckle. In 2008 Ford decided to change the knuckle casting by casting a "window" into the lower half of the knuckle to lose weight and reduce material costs, but dimensionally everything remained the same until the 2012.5 revision to larger brakes.[/i] Sounds like if you're shopping for junkyard knuckles, 2005-2007 would be the ones to get.
