Suspension 1974 Pintero (Custom Mini-Ranchero) - 5 Lug Axel

made me smile!

looks like a good job was done of it. Looks like a factory job.. depending on what is in the pinto, a v8 mII re-drilled to 5 bolt as suggested above would be good.

Love the Mini Pint-Up.

I used the speedway front kit. Then had Moser redrill my rear axles and used late 80's ranger drums. Moser was considerably cheaper and is just a couple hours from me. The local machine shops were not accommodating at all. I called 5 or 6 and they were either not willing to redrill them (insurance reasons) or gave me the impression they were not competent. One agreed to do it off the record with no guarantee but I was not willing to risk it.

The stock lower control arms will rub the speedway rotors when turning. I ground a little bit off the lip near the lower ball joint and it all clears. Other then master cylinder push rod length issues the brakes have worked well.
