yes another 5 lug conv question

black88 · June 9th, 2009, 09:46 AM

I did a 5 lug conversion on my 88 GT. I used 95 mustang parts with factory length Yukon axles and northracecars caliper brackets. My problem is the rear wheels are getting hot during normal driving conditions. Is it normal for the rear wheels to get hot? I had drums before and the rear wheels never got hot. Thanks

never heard of using yukon axles. make sure your rotors are centered in your caliper. that way its not putting excess pressure on one brake bad. That could be causing your heat.

What calipers and rotors are you using.
