    what is wrong with my transmission?

    Worth a shot, ATF is cheap. The damage might already be done though?

    what is wrong with my transmission?

    Your tranny is probably hosed http://www.moderndriveline.com/Technical_Bits/t5_history.htm 1985, Ford introduced the World Class T-5 One last piece of important information. ALL World Class T-5 use ATF oil and NOT heavy gear oil or Redline MTL! All NON-World Class T-5 use 70 wt gear oil.

    what is wrong with my transmission?

    That's wrong. WC T5s (like 1985+) should have ATF.

    ball joints which ones

    Use the 94 ball joints so you don't have to mess with the crappy cotter pin or spacer. Works fine as long as you have 94+ spindles

    ball joints for 5 lug swap

    From maximum motorsports. The instrutions for the tapered stud bump steer kit I bought said that bump steer is correctable with this kit with 94-95 spindles but with 96+ it's too much to correct with the tapered stud, you would need the bolt-through kit.

    ball joints for 5 lug swap

    You have that backwards. The 96+ spindles create way more bump steer than 94-95.

    **** snow....

    I'm going up to rural Illinois tomorrow on a business trip. Sucks, i'm going from 78F degrees here, to an almost record -10F in that crap hole. Why would anyone live where it gets that cold?

    Maybe you should just save your money for a down payment on a house

    5 lug swap worth it?

    Make sure you buy new hubs too. Most of the hubs that come off donor SN95 cars are crap. Would you use used rear end bearings in a gear install?

    Whats wrong with 4-Lugs??

    There is a point where 4-lug becomes a weak point as far as torque, but i'm not sure what it is. I think I remember seeing 400-500

    Whats wrong with 4-Lugs??

    You gotta love the look of cobra brakes with 5-lug wheels though:

    Whats wrong with 4-Lugs??

    Doesn't look as cool and you can't run decent brakes without spending a ton of money on big 4-lug brakes. You can buy Cobra calipers/brackets and 13in rotors for 300$ for an SN95 setup.

    5 lug swap worth it?

    I don't understand why you wouldn't need SN95 parts. The whole point of 5-lug kit is to upgrade the brakes. If you get the Lincoln rotors you are just downgrading the brakes by adding more rotational weight. The stock fox brakes are bad enough. SN95 parts let you run decent brakes and you can...

    M-2300-K '94 - '95 Suspension?

    True the bullitt springs didn't lower it too much. If I had to do it over again actually i'd probably get coil-overs or at least lower springs. The M-5400-A is a pretty budget and decent kit though.

    5 lug swap worth it?

    He must not actually be including anything. Most people would need at least 900?? The cheapest 5-lug wheels are 100 each and the cheapest tires at 100 each. That's at least 900 mounted.
