Default sn95 brake + 5 lug

hey guys, i finally found me a nice brake donor. its a 94 or 95 red 3.8L mustang sitting in a junkyard.
i was able to rip out both calipers along with the rubber brake lines. the rotors im not taking because they are rusted out and id like new slotted and/or drilled ones. as far as the hubs and spindles go, i ran out of time because the junkyard was closing. any tips on removing these or any other part i should take next time i go? thanks

a pickle fork and a large hammer for sure, I would just ditch the brake lines and get MM SS lines

i took the lines because i remember someone saying something about the fittings. the brakes wont be going in my car for at least 6 months until my current tires bald out.

ya you can use the fitting but in the end there just stock rubber lines, just upgrade now while you have it apart and get the SS lines that dont need any adapters, I believe you can use the stuff from the 7.5 just not the housing itself

what about the rear axles? im about to head to the junkyard for the rest of the stuff. will 7.5 axles work in my 8.8? i know the sn95 axles are a bit wider but i dont mind if they stick out a tad bit more, just wondering about it actually working

all of the brake parts, and axles from the 7.5 will fit in your 8.8 i got my stuff from a 96 v6. if you order wheels for an 05 mustang for the back the wheels will not stick out. you will just need to take off your quad shocks.

i have wheels for a 94-04 up front and for an 05-up out back and they dont stick out
