are they the same as 5.0 cars? i am looking at 5 lug kits and was wondering if i need to switch to 5.0 parts first? i may just go sn95 if that is the case? thanks for any hlep:thmbsup:

Troy - 95% confidence in this..........

Early fox (four eye cars) and 87+ 4 cylinder cars had the same spindles.
87+ V8 cars had a different spindle.
SVO is unique
87/88 Turbo coupes will work too.

I would go right to the SN95 stuff and have wheel choices too ;)

How Much?

The older stuff pre 86 was same 4,6,8 they changed caliper size then, but 87 up the v8 cars had larger spindles:thmbsup:

Troy, stay away from those 5 lug kits offered for crazy money. they are basically lincoln rotors and ranger axles and they charge way too much. Like Bob said just do SN 95 unless you know exactly what wheels you want to use then there may be a easier way also:thmbsup:

Troy, the Wilwood kits use the Fox V8 spindles. You have to cut part off and tap new holes. I did one of their kits on my 88 GT. It worked really nice to convert the front over to 5-lug.
