    Not sure if you would know or not but can I use an 03 diff?

      If you use 94' up spindles on a fox arm makes sure you use the 94' up ball joint also that way your not having to use a spacer or stack washers to salve that problem....chances are the car needs them anyway.

          Ford Ranger 5 lug drums is what I used but I have 28 spline although I don't think it makes a difference on the splines.

            ranger drums (there are two sizes, make sure to get the correct size) and fox length 31 spline axles, with any 8.8 31 spline diff. 03-04 cobra had the best clutches.

                I was going to go ahead and do 31 spline axles as long as I was going to be in there, that way I won't have to do it twice.

                  I have the bracket and calipers for the rear disk, I'm just impatient and want to get these rims on.

                      Can I use my existing brake lines, or should I use some high performance lines????

                        I would replace all the soft lines with SS. LMR should have all that...

                          The only thing I need for the rear is a different e-brake cable, and of course 5 lug axles. I already have the calipers and brackets. Any other suggestions?

                            If anyone wants it I have a LMR 5 lug conversion kit (missing axles--as others have said, source Ranger or Aerostar units) that I took off my last '93 when I changed over to Cobra 4 wheel disc setup ($$$). Have it all listed on Craigslist but if someone on here wants it and is willing to drive to Abilene they can have it for free...
