Disk brake conversion wheel ?

I am adding front disk to my 70 C10 with stock height.
I am staying with 6 lug.
My truck now has rally 15x8 wheels that came from a 4 wheel drive truck.
Will they clear the calipers? I don't understand the difference between 2 and 4 wheel drive.

Thanks

Thumbs up Re: Disk brake conversion wheel ?

I had 15" 8" ralleys on my 2 wheel drive and they cleared them just fine.

Get out and drive the truck this summer and have some fun!
It sucks not being able to hear!

LWB trucks rule, if you don't think so measure your SWB!
After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs.
