I went to the local junkyard and got the entire front spindle/hub assembly and brake lines off a '94 V6 mustang. I also picked up axles from a Ranger and an Aerostar. Got the Weatherhead #7828 fitting for the passenger side brake line at Napa and (3) grade 8 washers that totalled .330" for each ball joint from Lowes (Forget what size they were). Read up on these sites www.sn95brakes.com & http://www.stangnet.com/tech/lug.htmlfor more information.

thats what i did. makes it easier to do a brake job and wheel bearings. you can just get the 5 lug rotors but its not that much work to just go 94-95 style spindles. its better in the long run.

hey buddy so on the rear can you give me a complete list, do i geta ranger axle and aaerostar axle, and do i used the same drums and shoes.

PJB

Youll need either two left side Ranger axles or two right side Aerostar axles.
Youll also need Ranger drums. You can reuse the shoes and hardware (no need to take apart).

I went with '94 V6 front brakes and Ranger axles and drums in the rear.

PJB thanks im going to do the same set up as you so do i use the drums and shoes from a ranger or a use my hardware shoes and ranger drums is that what you ment.

PJB

Use yourMustang'shardware and shoes and get drums for a Ranger.
I bought new drums at Auto Zone for about $30 each.

Youre also going to need balljoint spacers for the front. I got mine from www.breezeautomotive.com .
