92 LX Disc Brake conversion
I am trying to do a 7.5 to an 8.8....Drum to Disc Brake Swap....on a Budget......
I have acquired a complete 8.8 rear end with Trac Lok and 3:55 gears from a 1988 Mustang GT... I have all the parts from a 87-88 Thunderbird T/C less axles... Will the T/C parts bolt up tp the 4 lug 5.0 axles, which I already have, and complete the disc brake conversion.. Is it true that the T/C Caliper Mounting Brackets will extend each axle 3/4" out on each side... I do not have the extra room in the fender wells to handle the extra length, without a potential fender rubbing problem.. Do I have any other choices than to buy the Special Brackets from North Race Cars and use stock length axles with the TC brakes... Thanks Stan |
your 7.5 axles and brakes will swap over into the 8.8. i wanna say there is a bracket to use the mustang axles and keep the disc. did you get an auto tbird rear? if so you got 3.73 gears manual cars got 3.55s
