I am just wondering exactly what I need to complete the 5-lug swap on my 86GT. All the parts will be coming from a 95GT. Also will I be able to use the internals (ie gears, posi) out of my 4-lug 8.8? It has 3.73s and an recently rebuilt posi in it so I would like to use that stuff if at all possible. Any info on the swap is grealty appreciated.

You can use everything in your 8.8? If you are going with the cobra rear set up, you need to use cobra caliper brackets, if not get a set of brackets from northracecars.com and use fox length axles. I have a couple of threads that might help you out, do a search for 5 lug rims on a fox.
