1960 KG disk brake front & drop spindles
Hi Guys
I have bought the EMPI front disk brake conversion kit which includes drop spindles. Will I have wheel clearance problems or do I need a narrowed
beam. I will probably be using EMPI 5.5"x15" wheels.
Thanks

I think your choice of wheel's will rub, narrowing the beam if just a bandaid , you could buy wheels with the correct offset to suit you car after
the spindles and brakes have been fitted and you determine what the correct offset that is required, i think you gain about 20MM a side with the
dropped spondle's
