I do realize I will need to get new drums also.I am just looking for the easiest way to do the 5 lug with out to much modding


thow that dream out the window! youll find out quick that easy isnt an option on modding a bird or cat. we have to peice things together from other cars. there are more simple ways to do something thanks to all the guy here that have invested the time and money to find what works. just a warning that is going to take the effort of building 2 mustangs to get a nice modded bird, and WELCOME

I'll trade you some amber turn signal lenses for your clear ones.

if it were me, i would knock the studs outta the sn95 axles and turn the hub to match the ranger drums.
that way you can use off the shelf brake parts if/when the time comes for replacement.

ether, the way i understand it the tbird backin plates are different. in order to use the "two right side ranger axle" swap, you would also need to use the ranger/mustang backin plates to get the proper offset to match the axles and drums.
