Front Brakes

I am having a problem finding rotors and pad that will fit on truck. Ford dealership and tire craft have no idea what they could be. They have tried putting on a few options and they are all to big. We are at a loss and guys are putting the old ones back on for now.
my question DOES ANYONE KNOW ABOUT BRAKES AND ROTORS FOR TWIN TRACTION BEAMS ON A 4x4
much appreciated

You might have a 95 STX ranger or a flavor of it which uses a slightly smaller brake rotor for the 4wd. The rotor diameter comes in at 276mm.

Normal 4WD rotor diameter size is 286mm on your year and thats probably what Ford is trying to get and its too big. RWD Rangers have 261mm which is way too small.

Measure your rotor diameter. If its 276mm, you can get rotors and pads for the STX model from various places but its slim pickings. Rock Auto shows a few specifically for the STX line in that size. Look at the rotor diameter specs before ordering and match it on the company website. Order the matching company pads.
