RE: Is anyone a fox-body guru?????
79-86 all models use 9" front rotors. In '87 the changed the spindles to accomidate 11.86" rotors. 79-85 all have 7.5" axles. In '85 the GT 5speed models came carbed and the automatics had some CFI crap.
I have a set of 87-93 front spindles with factory GT struts, if anyone is interested.

(Vader87) The kit I'm getting is in the summit racing catalog. It includes... FRPP springs, Hothchkis caster/camber plates, Strange adjustable struts and shocks. I'm going to buy an Energy Suspensions poly-urethane bushing kit for the whole car also.
(mjr46)Thanks for the info on the spindles. I understand what the difference is now. It's the thickness of where the strut bolts onto the spindle. When you said they were different sizes. I thought maybe there were different length struts or something.
Well..... Hopefully tomorrow I'll call Summit up and order the kit. I just sold an old beater truck for $500.The kit costs $680. I'll just have to hide the bill from summit from the wife for awhile
.
(Shelty) Thanks for bringing up the rear-end. Can anyone give me some tips on what rears willswap into our cars. Does it have to be out of a mustang (Because of the quad shocks)? Or will it work without the quads?
