I need some advice on what to do here....
i have a 1984 5.0 hatch that i am building/restoring. everything underneath is all pretty rusty and needs to be replaced. My original plan was to switch to 5-lugs because its going to have a lot more power, but i just cant seem to find the parts. every thing says that it fits 86 and up. Does anyone know if these "kits" would work or even a different way to do it? anything would help, thanks guys!

Search the forums. This topic has been covered a million times. You can either buy a kit, find a wrecked 94-95 mustang, rear axles off a ranger if your keeping drums blah blah blah. Need more info, are converting rear to disc or keeping drums? Do some research
