I just bought a 65 fastback but previous owner installed disc brakes up front from a 67 mustang. The wheels on now rub on the upper control arm,could it be the off set? The current wheels i believe are 15". I put on a 18x9 wheel up front and same results. what went wrong here...need help are the brakes correct, spindles from the 67 were used also. Any help would be much appreciated.


Thanks!

You can grind sone of the upper arm off. Where on the arm does it rub?
