WOW, ok. settle down, Nik, settle down. *yes i am talking to myself* This is the thrid topic i have seen of this same stuff in the last two days. But i guess i can repeat myself, x5. so they are just like the mustang axles, 28 spline but 5 lug. they fit right into it like the stock ones do. The average stang has less than 200hp so yes they will handle the HUGE amount of power the the stock stang will put out. lol. so the ranger alxes and the aerostar axles are the same, both can be used and even mix-matched. For the front use some sn95 spindle and pbr 99+ alluminum dual piston calipers, along with 10.8"rotors. You can use the ranger drums as they are the same as our beloved stang but 5 lug.
