5 lug conversion

93foxmustang · May 5th, 2011, 10:35 PM

will the 5 lug components off a 94 v6 mustang work on my 93. how hard would it be to do? will the axles work in the rear in the car now?

I dont know about the front end, but i am 99% sure that the 7.5 is an unchanged rearend. They used it from 79 to 2008 in any stang that wasnt a v8. (maybe longer?? but i doubt it the new v6 is a mean motor)

hopefully the front will work too. i wanna do the full swap. maybe even coverting to all 4 disk too

Axle shafts are longer for the rear disc brakes. Fronts you will have to change the knuckles also.

I remember reading about there being some differences in the flare nuts for the brake hoses between the fox cars and the SN95 cars. You might want to check the threading and sizes between the two nuts.

There is a reason why Ford Racing sells fox-body specific front lower control arms and SN95 specific front lower control arms. I know that if you use SN95 spindles, you will have to use a spacer between the Fox balljoint and the SN95 spindle.

You can do it on the cheap with Ranger 4 cyl front rotors and 2 driver side Aerostar axles( or was it Pass side)

Mikel89us · May 12th, 2011, 02:29 PM

you can use ranger axles

Driver side Ranger and passenger side Aerostar axles are the same
