Will my crossmember drag?

[Rob68c10]

Hi all. I have a SWB 68 c10. I plan to do a 4/6 drop and do the power disc conversion. All I plan to do is the drop and slap on the stock wheels and ride. I have a few questions....

Will my stock steel wheels fit over the disc brakes?

And my main concern is will I have problems dragging the crossmember?

I have tried searching but the search button just frustrates me

Anybody have any input?

15" 'drum brake' spec'd wheels will not clear the disc brake calipers. You'll have to space them out or swap to some wheels that fit disc applications.

The front x-member won't drag w/a 4" front drop & appropriate size front tire height (>27").

How about the carrier bearing? That was my main concern. Will any of that drag?

Truck arm x-member? It won't even come close @ 6/8 drop.
