5 Lug Conversion confirmation questions

slamjammer has all the 5 lug components from a 1990 LSC Lincoln, so I'm just making sure I've got everything together. The rotors will go on my 88 TC and give me 5 lug and the calipers for that car are larger than my stock ones, and are 73mm correct? And they will also bolt right up?

And on the rear, the complete axle will bolt in and is a bit wider, or I could use SN95 axles in my rear end and what brake components would I need if I did this? Would I still need the SN95 caliper brackets to work with the bigger rear rotors? Or is there a rotor and axle combo that will work with the stock brackets? (I think this is where the two ranger axles from one side come in? But I'm not sure)

I've read up on this, I just am still a little confused about this particular combination. It seems like a lot of trouble to piece it together, but it would be cheaper if I can use stock mustang 17" wheels.

Just use the LSC axle shafts, brake brackets, rotors and calipers for the rear. Yes the front calipers are 73mm, bolt right on, as do the LSC rotors. [Image: biggrin.gif]

Cool, no issues with the longer axle in the shorter housing? Cause I really would like the wider stance in the rear.

No, no problem at all, here is a pic of my TC axle with the LSC shafts in.
