HELP!! Disc brakes and 14" SS wheels.
I've got a '74 Omega (X-body) converted to disc brakes with an aftermarket Inline kit, stock height spindles. 15" SSs fit and look great but the T/A Radials rub the wheelwells. I don't want to get real, real low profile tires. I like fattys, not flatties. 14" SSs just don't fit around the aftermarket caliper brackets. Will the A-body factory discs bolt on to an X-body car? Will the A-body drum spindles with the bolt boss ground down work? Will any A-body (Chev, B,O,P) work? Which years? Anybody make an aftermarket kit that replicates the factory parts?
p.s. Anybody near Denver got a set of useable factory disc brakes for sale?

 

1969-1972 A-body and 1969-1974 X-body stock disk brakes are IDENTICAL. The parts carry the same part numbers. The only difference is the bolt-on steering arm. There are a lot of vendors that carry reproductions of the stock caliper brackets. The A-body cars came with 14x7 SSII wheels and disk brakes from the factory.

Are you talking about SSI or SSII/III wheels? The SSI wheels come in disk and non-disk versions. The SSII/III wheels ALL clear factory disk brakes, from 14x6 to 15x7.
