I have a set sitting in vacuum pack right now. My main concern is what I will need, besides brakes and wheels, to run them. As most of us know the factory brakes are total crap on Fox bodies. The reason is because my front shocks are basically gone, and the steering rack is also loose and sloppy (insert mom jokes) feeling.

MM has a good article related to the swap, its worth doing IMO for the better brakes and one piece wheel bearing alone

what gen sn95? 94-95, 96-98 or 99-04?

I have 99-04 spindles on my 91.





The d/s brakelines match up but I had to make a small adaptor line to match up the cars hard line to the caliper flex line on the p/s side. also I used a few washers on the balljoints instead on getting the shorter ones.

The toe was way off but there was enoug h length in the tie rods to get it back in speck using the fox steering rack.

The person i bought them from said they are from a 5.0. So I'm going to say 94-95. But, some people think the 5.0 is any Ford V8 ever made.

Do they have serviceable bearings or sealed bearings? Serviceable are 94-95 no serviceable are 96-04. If you can try and get 99-04 brake calipers as they are bigger, I believe.

They are still in the vacuum packing i got them in. I don't want them to be exposed while they wait for me to install them. I am going with the SVO 13 inch Cobra brakes. No point doing it twice.

Ah ok. Well you will need

Calipers
Caliper mounting brackets
Caliper flex lines
Banjo bolts
Brake line adaptor on p/s (or make your own
using a small piece of brake line and fittings)
Washers or shorter ball joints
Alignment

Ok....so the same springs and shocks will work?

I reused my stock fox springs and struts without issue.
