Yes but not quite that thick.

You can also use a drum brake hub.

Be aware that if you use a multi-piston caliper you will need to make sure the spokes on your wheels do not hit the caliper. Oz had to arrange custom wheels for the hot rod.

If you're sticking with a sliding caliper the caliper clearance is far less critical.
