- I decided to provide an overview of my 5 lug and rear disc brake swap that I did back in February, 2022.
I go over the products I used, the mistakes I made and the overall look afterwards.
Let me know if you like it and if you want a review of my other projects that I did before making videos. #foxbody #foxbodymustang #mustang
If you can jack the suspension all the way to the bump stops, and have no tire contact, the wheel/tire combo fits. An 8.5” wide front/ 9” wide rear wheel is the limit on an unmodified Fox.
When SN95 rear brake hoses are used, the factory bump stops need to be removed so there’s no contact at full compression. SN95 rear shocks have internal bump stops.
Great mods! Wheels, tires, 5 lugs, rear disc brakes, and rear louvers.
Thanks, it’s been a fun project.
I've tried and tried and tried with my five lug swap, I did the front cadillac brembos and the 93master/booster my brakes keep dragging after driving any tips?
I didn’t have an issue with drag on my swap so I’m not sure what might be going on. Did you gut the prop valve and use the MM master cylinder hard lines and add a manual prop valve at the passenger side firewall? Did you get a good bleed on both valves of the Brembo?
Get everything off the same car and it will be cheaper from the salvage yard
I was thinking about this since my car ate a spindle recently. SN95 spindles are hard to come by around here. So I'm sticking with the 4 lug with a turbo coupe rear end.
That’s not a bad plan. This is my first 5-lug swap out of the 5 Foxbody’s I’ve owned. It’s a great project but not a must, by any means.
