94 and newer rear
anyone just bolt in a 94 and up 5 lug rear if so, any issues, clearence,wheels? i got someone who wants to trade my 4 lug and chrome ponys for there 5 lug and cobra rim setup..rear is out of a 95 gt, i think its about a 1" or so wider..so any thoughts..would like to just bolt the rear in instead of looking for bronco axles for my rear to convert it to 5lug

well i did it with my car.. i took mines out af a sn95 also. actually, the rear end is 1/4 wider on each side, so that adds up to 1/2 inch total length longer. and yes you can just "bolt it in" no clearance issues, besides the fact that you probably will have to roll you fenders. i had to roll mines with 17x9 cobras and 245/45's. but i swtich to 17x8 01 gt wheels so its fine. and whne you do get the rear end, make sure to get his brake lines too for the rear. the old fox lines wont fit.

no i didnt unfortuantely.. i still have to do my 3-2 port conversion.. the pedal is a ltitle mushy.. but hey my tires dont lock up like my drum brakes used to do.. so its all gravy..! ahha cause i slammed on the brakes from 50 and it didnt even screech! haha the brakes are a little weak because i havent done the 3-2 port conversion.. im about to sell the stang so i dont really bother for it anymore.. my parents bought me a new car for college,2006 acura rsx type s, and yes im vietnamese so dont hate.. and this car is quick!
