    EDIT - never mind, i just went and looked over in Saskatchewan and saw it was 4-lug and then you did a partial swap with the Ronals and swapped back...
    Now going back to 5. The correct way. Lol

      What drums will still work?

      If like rear disk but I heard that takes a lot of parts swapping.

        FYI make sure you get 94/95 spindles only if you still have the stock kmember. Where the tie rod mounts to the spindle on the 94/95 are curved, Where as the 96+ will be straight. 96+ increase track width and worse cause dangerous bumpsteer conditions when using the stock kmember.

          I just ordered the rear kit from 50resto for mine. Axles/drums/gasket/gear oil - I think it was $200. Can't find it online right now.

          They do show a front/rear kit for $400

                Look up a front rotor for an 84-86 Mustang SVO, they will go right on.

                    The SVO rotor affects the wheel offset if I remember correctly.

                      You're half right. The curved steering arm of the 94/95 spindle will induce bumpsteer which will get worse when you lower the vehicle.

                        negatory... lincolns had a wider A-arm and axles... same with the SVO...

                        the 93 Cobras had a different height of "hat" and used the fox mustang control arms and 87-88 Turbo Coupe rear axles/brakes. the thunderbirds used the wider a-arm

                          Yeah, I just went and looked and I knew there was something about them(the reason I didn't use them on mine) - it's the hub size not working with certain wheels. The dust cap sticks out too far.

                              Do you have bumpsteer issues with your vert? Using the 96+ spindle?

                                Ok so the 96+ will be fine on my car?
