Have to get fox body spindle. Then use adapter to make the spindle able to use a ball joint UCA instead of strut.

The backing plates are custom made i believe.Yeah the front brakes won't work with out a lot of work.If your car has disc now those would be a down grade.

Wait i had a thought didn't the fox body have a front mounted rack so the steering arms are in the wrong place unless you could put them on backwards?
