I am thankful that somebody finally reproduces these 2 piece rotors. I've been collecting "thin" ones for years.
Anybody need some hard to find 2-piece paperweights?
I'll sell them cheap but the shipping will kill you!

A simple solution, since the back half rarely wears out, would be to manufacture only the rotor half and replace just that part. The rotor could be turned after being mounted on the hub to make everything true. I've replaced a lot of rotor hats on 4 wheel drive trucks and swedged new studs in them so I know it's not all that hard. Wouldn't be that different on one of those old hubs. It's not like re-inventing the wheel or anything.....

I have shipped FOUR OEM GM C5 Corvette rotors in the US Postal large FLAT RATE box for $15... 67 pounds worth

your rotors should fit in their large box, if only one at a a time, but that still puts the cap on of $30 for both
