Are you doing the swap yourself? Junkyard parts? (I know you like the yards like me) I am looking at doing the same thing with maybe a Cobra IRS in the rear. I have the Bullit wheels on my car right nowwithout the center caps. Let me know if you need a hand with parts or anything else, Im local.

Yeah I'm somewhat addicted to going to the junkyards. However it's hard to find SN95's in the u pull it's. So I have a aquantince of mine who owns a yard and he is giving me the parts at a good price. I have no desire to do a IRS swap nor am I brave enough, but if you decide to do it and give me enough notice I could lend some muscle. When I get it on the road again we'll have to hook up.
ThanksRick

Well I've got the rears on. Had to put stock fox length axles in and switch the caliper brackets from side to side. I'll take some pics when I get done with the front SN95 swap. I'm kinda going to miss the stock wheels. It kinda looks like any other Mustang with the 5 stars.Rick

They have the same backset (aproxiamtely) as our stock wheels except they are an inch wider so they stick out past the wheel wells. It wasn't that hard to do. Just took a couple hours after work for 3 days, including installing an aluminum driveshaft. What a difference that made. I just followed the directions on this website http://home.pacbell.net/black306/tech/reardisc.html . I think I spent more time analyzing it than I spent actually doing it.Originally posted by Alan
I was under the impression the only thing you would need to change was the front suspension, not the rear axles.

Congrats on the swap. It wasn't too bad was it? Send me some pics when you get done.

niiiiiiice. I started w/ '99+ PBR calipers and later upgraded to cobra brakes (they work fine w/ the wheels and MC, just need calipers, brackets, and rotors). I also did a cobra IRS at a later date.'86 SVO (9L) SCCA autox car, "Sneezy"
