i did that conversion on my car. you need 5 lug rear axles out of a 94/95 mustang, drums, front discs (you can reuse your stock calipers up front), spindles out of a 94/95 mustang or SVO mustang, and also up front you will need longer studs and wheel spacers depending on the tire size in the front and you may want spacer in the back. i have a 295 tire on my 18x10 saleens in the back of my car, they rub sometimes on bad bumps in the road. other than that you should be all set.

yeah it doesnt really matter what axles you get, you could even get them out of a ranger or lincoln mark vii lsc, but the lsc axles are a little too long and would cause the rear wheels to stick out a little bit. your better off finding 94/95 mustang axles, v6 or v8. and thanks for the compliment, haha it took a long time to get that thing where it is.

94'95 axles are too long too though. i believe they're very similar to the lincoln axles.
