Were any pintos made with 5 bolt rotors or drums? If so what year and model? Or are there other models like Mustang II, etc. that interchange? I have 5 on 4 1/2 from Maverick rearend. Or do I need front spindles from another ford and what is involved in the exchange?
All Pintos were 4 X 4 1/4 lug pattern. Check the FAQ section of the forum. There might be a post for a 5 lug conversion in there.
Here's the link for the rotors.

First, welcome to the forum.
Second, what year is your Pinto?
My '78 has direct bolt-on Granada rotors. They fit right on the spindle without any issues.
I went 11" and had to do a brake bracket and upgrade, but the 9" works fine with the stock caliper, per the FAQ.
depending on your car speedway motors has NEW 5 lug rotors for the car that are a straight swap.
