Thumbs up 4-Lug to 5-Lug in 3.5 hours

Last night myself and good friend ByrneCH done a axle swap on my 90 LX 5.0 in 3.5 hours and this was including putting on new brakes.

The swap was straight forward and no catches no where,the only part I would recommend is when you are putting the rear gear oil in try to get a lift there,or have a good chiropractor on stand by.

So if anyone ever does this do not sweat it,it is very straight forward and there were no hangups,good luck to anyone that does it,it is well worth it in the long run.

We also did the front rotors along with this,just had to throw that in there,in case you were wondering if I had 5 lugs on the back and 4 on the front,it is 5 all the way around.

I bought the kit from Brother's Performance,I know there are some that have done it cheaper,with going to the boneyard,but it is a worthwhile investment,and the T/A girdle cover even though it will never get seen looks cool also.
