When I did the Early Classic conversion I used a 2 inch drop spring and a 2 1/2 inch drop spindle.
I used 15 inch old-school chrome reverse rims, and they just barely fit with no contact with the caliper.
Another thing, disk brakes NEED air flowing over them, and the more the better, to prevent brake fade.
I would consider 17 inch ralleys ( or open custom wheels ) to get increased air flow around the inside and openings to allow hot air to be flushed out. Cool brakes are happy brakes..

Go to wheel vintiques website, they have a couple of charts, as you measure what it tells you, fill in the blank spaces on the chart. when your done youll know every measurement youll ever possibly need to know for your truck.
