Will have to be the drums from the ranger / bronco II, the aerostar are 10" drums unless you plan on swapping out the whole brake assy. from the aerostar.

If those fit your stock spindles then you will be limited by the hub depth of the front unless you plan on leaving the center cap off the front or all the wheels. As far as factory wheels the 16" ponies and 17" tri-bars used on the 94 GT's will fit with no issues, trying to run any of the newer SN95 wheels, the center caps will not fit on the front.



On the rear you will be ok depending how wide a rim/tire combo you choose. All the factory rims are set up for the extra width of the rear disc brakes.

Aftermarket wheels you'll just have to compare to what others have used.

I'm running these on my 87 with the stock spindle in these pictures but as you can see I modified the center cap to fit.
