I am putting this out there for the more seasoned mustang guys, but don't a lot of people use the 8.8 explorer axles? I know they are 5 lug and come with disk brakes. If they are too long, just have them cut. If you can find one with disc's already and the ratio you want, then seems like having a shop cut and re-weld the tubes and buying new axles would be less than building that 8". Not sure if they are locked or limited slip either.
