Default 5 Lug Swap *SN95 Rear End Help*

Quick question for the bright ones on here...

I'm in the process of doing a complete 5 lug/disk swap into my 91 GT, using a 95 rear end & front disks/spindles/etc.

Questions:
1. What axels do I have to use to run 9" wide tires with?
2. Will I now need to buy springs/struts made specifically for the 95+ or for the 87-93 foxbody?

Let me know.

1) Your best bet would be to use Fox-length 5-lug axles to fit 9" rims (typical off the shelf Mustang rims. ex. Cobra R's, FR500's etc...) Or you can use the 94-98 axles and get 9" wide rims with a custom offset.

2) You still get the Fox springs/shocks/struts.
