5 lug conversion with wheels

Ok here is my questions friends, I want to put the 96 cobra SVT wheels from ford motorsport on my 87 mustang gt but i need to get a few things straight 1st. #1 i need 5 lugs not 4 so i have read in here that 5 lug rotors from a 91 lincoln lsc would swap right on? #2 the rear 9 1/34 drums from an 8.8 ford ranger will work? i am getting 31 spline 5 lug axles , will this pose any problems with the conversion? I have installed 93 gt front fender extentions to eliminate tire rub, is there more clearance problems that i am not aware of? The 96 chrome SVT rims are 19X8 i beleive. thanks again all.

You are right about the rotors. Your right about the drums. You can't use 31-spline axles unless you change to a 31-spline differential. Stock 96 Cobra SVT rims are not 19x8.

If you think that chrome 96 cobra rims are 19x8 don't even think about digging into the suspension.

Re: 5 lug conversion with wheels

when my uncle was doing his 4 lug conversion on an 89lx, he just bought the rear end out of a lower mileage 94-95gt from the junkyard, and swapped stuff over. i dont rem what he did for the front.
