I just bought a 79 Ghia package mustang. It has 4 lug 4 wheel disc brakes on it. What do I need to convert it to 5 lug and 4 wheel discs, no rear drums?

Thanks.

Do a search on brakes and you will find a lot of info. But here is a place to start: http://sn95brakes.com

There are a lot of other websites with install info and such.

Going with the full SN95 brake setup would be the best deal, as you get upgraded front setup and rears, and no limits on the wheels you can use like the cheaper 5 lug front rotor swap conversion.

Good luck!

or you can piece it together for under 700 (even cheaper if you use GT parts instead of cobra)
