It is probally cheaper to buy a new set of front wheels with the offset you need instead of replacing the rotors, calipers and mountning brackets
No can do . I have 2 sets of matching rear rims ,1 pair is double beedlocks.The matching fronts were only avalible with a 1-3/4 offset

IIRC, the 68-72 K-H discs had a narrower track than the 73 and up.

Are you using an aftermarket rotor now? Some aftermarket brake rotors, like Wilwood, etc. tend to move the wheel offset outwards...

I have a '76 Duster disc brake car. I seem to recall that the late disc brakes are about 3/4" wider per side. It has to be in the rotor/spindle itself, because the control arms are the same length. I know the front wheels stick way out on the car.

For what its worth you can reem out the older spindles to the larger ball joint. I did this when I put my RMS upper arms on.
