I have the ECI unit in my 65 Cutlass...my wheels were rubbing the fender moulding with factory disc brakes so I used their kit to bring it inboard...works great

Factory disc brakes on 1967 A-body cars did NOT rub the fenders and cleared 14" brakes. Put these parts on any 64-67 car and the fitment is the same. I remain amazed that people need to spend big dollars on aftermarket parts to fix a non-problem. If your tires and wheels are rubbing, you have the wrong offset.

Joe are you really sure...... any chance to figure out from which year my disk brake kit is.

Joe correct me if i´m wrong-any aftermarket disc brake conversion KIT for 64-67 cars move the tires outboard ,but a the original 67 disk kit not!


thanks
