06 F150 front hub replacement

I bought EBC Ultimax Slotted Rotors and Green Stuff 6000 pads, but of course the stock rotor comes 1 piece with the hub. Does anyone know of a hub kit to bolt on with bearings, so I can use some decent rotors?

My truck is a '06, F150 XLT 2WD, 5.4 V8, 6 lug. Thx.

I don't know but my 08 has a separate rotor hub design. Have a parts store show you both and compare.

That's because you have a 4x4. Us 2wd's have the bearing and hub all in one

I have a 2006 xlt 4x4 and my rotors are separate from my hubs. I took all 4 rotors off when I put my lift on, and the hubs assembly was a separate piece

Scroll down, and you will se an upgrade kit for 2 peice design for 2WD. I'm guessing these are not the only manufacturer to do this......

Answers....finally

K, for all those poor souls that are in my shoes, here is the route to take and save you lotsa dollars at the same time.
My 1 piece hub/rotor for my '06 2WD F150 XLT will be replaced with the following upgrade:

Centric Hub kit - part #124.65902 and a set of EBC Ultimax Rotors - dimpled and slotted with EBC 6000 pads.

The hubs cost $85.00 - $100.00 each and the EBC Ultimax Rotors $268.00 for the set of 2 and pads $85.00.

No more 1 piece hub/rotor for me at $290.00 each from Ford.
