4 to 5 lug conversion

Nate28 · 01-08-2009, 10:16 PM

im currently doing the same you are with my 67 coupe and im going with a 8inch 5 lug rear end and 5 lug granada spindles with disk brakes. Are you converting to a V8? Me personally if you are going to keep the Inline6 i would just leave the 4lug spindles.

If possible when converting to 5-lugs stay away from granada parts. The reason for this is if you want to upgrade to rack and pinion or make any other front suspension mods the granada spindles and calipers are not compatible with a lot of aftermarket parts. Find parts for mustangs that had disc brakes. The original calipers were 4 piston. With the right master cylinder they work great.
