I'd like to buy a rear disc brake set up from a '76 Imperial to install on my '70 SBP 8&3/4. Question I have is will the 14" GTS Steel Wheels clear the calipers?
I'll bet this question doesn't come up very often. Any help out there in A Body Land?
Thank You:burnout:
 
Imperials are LBP unless you have the rotors drilled you wont be able to use the SBP axles or wheels. Why not convert to LBP axles & then you have a lot more wheel choices available?
 
Imperials of that vintage have a 5 X 5" bolt pattern, just like an older chevy truck. I switched all the brakes and running gear from a '73 imperial to my '66 imp so i could get the disc brakes and the more common bolt pattern compared to the bastard 5x5.5" on the 66.
