Change from 4 Lugs to 5 Lugs

86PonyCar · 02-27-2002, 11:52 AM

How hard would it be to chane my 86 Stang from 4 Lugs to 5 Lugs? Can it be done at home or does someone highly skilled need to do it?

Also, how expensive would it be?

Thanks

I did that same conversion on my 92' All I did was order a ser of slotted rotters for a 95' (they fit on the spindle the same) for your 86' you'll need to get 87-93 spindels to clear bigger rottors (any junkyard) for the back I ordered strange axels (was upgrading anyway) in five lug and got a set of used ranger drums. That shopuld be all you'll need to change.

Hope this helps.

If you have 10 inch rotors, then just get the ranger stuff, they never used bigger than a 10 rotor on the 80 to 90's rangers.

If you have 11 inch rotors, your gonna have to make do with Mark VII rotors, I had mine machined down so that I could bolt on the 5 lug mustang wheels
