    going 5 lug

    Started my 5 lug swap today.Back end went easy,front was very different,found 2 bad ball joints and a cracked brake hose.Glad I found it now and not half way to Carlisle!!

    I bought a set of 99 cobra wheels from smallville. I really like the way they look on the notch.

    Yea,I did the sn 95 front and ranger rear. since I need ball joints I'm going to use 94 ones that way I don't have to stack washers. I'm going to change the tie rod ends too seein I'm this far and it needs lined up anyway.

    Steeda sells a set of balljoints that is perfect for the SN95 swap.

    I need to pick up a set myself. I just picked up the SN95 spindles and I have a set of 97 Cobra Rear axles I'll use on a Turbocoupe Rear End.
    I just need a set of four Rotors, front dust shields and calipers.

    Curious if the SN95 Dust shield are the same 1994-2004. Did you replace yours?

    I got new ones from ford for the 94 spindles,they fit fine.By the way I have 2 ball joints for a 94 if you're doing a swap no need to use spacers and alot cheaper than steeda 40.00 for the pair
