Sky's rear disk

So I have the sky rear disk brakes and it's time to change the rotors and pads....Anyways sky claims the rotors are from a 88-98 1500 front rotors but they are "light duty" so the rotors are 1.00 wide, every rotor in these years are 1.25 wide! I have called every damn shop here in town, and they all say the same .....Anyways called Sky Offroad and he wasn't any help at all, he couldn't give me an exact year for these rotors all he said was there a rare hard to find light duty rotor that most shops don't carry WTF!
anyways I guess they want you to buy them from sky...does anyone know what year chevy made a 1.00 thick rotor for a 1500 chevy or should I just buy the from sky and pay shipping and there higher prices.

Man seeing this thread did not make me feel any better today.

I just ordered skys trans ebrake on the 18th waited until the 25th did not recieve an email or anything just letting me know they recieved the order.so I emailed them just asking if they recieved my order and payment.
The 26th sky replied asking what my order number was , I gave it to them on the 26th ,as of today the 28th I dont even know if they recieved my order and payment ,I called them and no answer I am waiting till the 30th for some kind of response then I filing a claim with paypal and ordering the kit elsewhere.

any way good luck finding the pads man !!

I ordered the kit and had no problems except they did not send one part that I ordered, called them up and they sent it next day without any problems. I think it must be a small shop maybe only 1 or two people but I could be wrong.
