I have a 92 Gt. Does anyone know or is there someone who makes a 4 lug disk brake kit for my car? Or must I covert to 5 lug.

The kits are out there. http://store.summitracing.com/partde...5&autoview=sku <<<<-------just an example(certainly not the cheapest route)
Just google mustang rear disk brake conversion, thats also a good starting point.

I have heard something about taking 2 driver side axles from a ford ranger and doing it that way also.

I will probably get the ones from summit. Don't feel bad I had the catalog right in the garage.

ssbc sells a four lug disk brake kit for foxes or you could go budget and try to find a 87-88 turbocoupe and take the rear disks off of that (same as 93 cobra)

I think the turbo coupe is a 5 lug, and he wants to go 4 lug

no the turbo coupe is 4 lug not five, the thunderbird was 4 lug until 89 when it changed platforms from the fox platform to the m***( can't remember exact name)
you can check ebay every once in a while some is selling the turbocoupe brakes and they usually go for a decent price since most people don't know that they are the same 4 lug disks as the cobra.
