I just sold a complete 94-95 car to a mustang salvage yard. I has five lug. If you want his number let me know. If not you can get too right side axles from a ranger. The fronts, someone else will have to tell you where to get them.

Just a dumb question, but are 94-95 rear ends narrower or wider?

88workcar · 01-10-2003, 10:00 PM

I do not know, sorry.

Thats kewl, Ill hafta run to the junk yard and pick up a couple ranger axles, I need to go 5 lug so I can find a decent looking race wheel cheap, kinda hard to find 4 lug anything seems like, too bad my cobra r's will be collecting dust!

Duh! Hey, on drums what should I do with that mess?

sn-95 axles are wider but not buy much depending on the wheel they can be used (8 inch wide)and i am told it is a direct swap you will have to do a few other things to the brake system to run rear disc though you can use the fronts of of the sn-95 also that is what i did it is fairly easy other than getting the struts to bolt up to the sn-95 spimdles which took alittle effort i used the ranger axles and drums in the rear to save money for the time
there was a sight that was very informative on hte whole procedure if i can finds it ill post the link
