Re: 59 Disc brake conversion using Toyota parts
I don't think you will have a problem with the 16 inch stock wheels. Although It looks like the diameter of the rotors might be 12.6 inches = 320 MM which might make it a tad tight.
Still I like that suggestion of trying one of your wheels on the donor rig before you pull the pieces off. I'd snag the caliper brackets off the donor too so that I had the basic bracket design and possibly be able to modify those brackets to bolt them on your spindles.
