Default Brake Calipers

I just purchased a 1993 LX and it has a 5 lug conversion that was put on by the previous owner but I wanted to see if anyone recognizes these brake calipers and what vehicle/model they are off of?

Without a part#, the guessing game will ensue... So, I will guess 1994-1995 mustang
calipers, since that's what the basic Kits are using; '94-'95 parts, including the spindles, and
rear axle shafts.

There is some info there on the last pic, but can't make it out, you angled
the shot, rather than a direct line of sight closeup. Take that information, and
use a search engine....

1995 owner here. Those aren't SN95 calipers. And those aren't SN95 spindles, either. SN95 spindles aren't drilled for cotter pins; we have locknuts on the spindles to hold the sealed wheel bearing/hub assembly in place.

You still have the old-style integrated rotor/hubs, except that they're 5-lug. Probably SVO, Lincoln, or Ranger rotor/hubs.

Thanks for your info. I didn't think they were from the SN95 but thought they could be from a Thunderbird or Cougar but could not verify it. Hopefully when I take the calipers off today, I will find a readable part number.

Those are the factory calipers off of your car... looks like someone just swapped out the rotors for 5 lug
