I have some Legend rims that are knockoffs pretty much. I have the ECE conversion spindles on my '69. My wheels are 17x8 with zero offset which is 4.5" backspacing.

ECE sells stock replacement style brakes. I have stock brakes with ECE spindles/springs. my old 17x8's had 4"bs and cleared everything.

Re: ECE Front Disc Brakes and Torq Thrust Wheels
Yeah from my understanding, what ece sells is raybestos stuff like rotors, pads, drums. Which probably as close to stock as possible. Granted what I'm going to get is the disc brake conversion kit with 2.5" drop, put stock height springs in front and 4" drop in rear and rebuild all the brakes.

Sorry.
It has ECE 2" dropped spindles. Brakes and calipers are stock.
