And, by swapping to a matching 9" drum.

But don't forget the most expensive parts.....wheels and tires. The front is a little more in depth but not hard. Go read the stickiest all over the different mustang sites and you will have the info on how easy it is glaranotch.

Yeah or either bring your "good" wheel to the junkyard and spin the axle.

I got my whole rear SN95 5 lug stuff from eBay, real nice shape for like 200 shipped. I've gone over a 600 mile round trip with it this summer as well...
