You have to be careful of what set up you choose as some can greatly limit your Wheel choices.

Both of you guys are right!!!

I used all salvage yard parts for my notchback. 94-95 spindles, 99-04 PBR dual piston calipers, and for the rear I used 85-92 Ranger rear axle shafts.

Now all wheels will fit. Now the car stops like a 99-04 GT..or (excellent if you will) The rear I kept drum for many reasons. Cost, time and my own labor.

The front, I had to buy two 3/8 of an inch hardened washers to place on the ball joint stud of the spindles. This allows the cotter pin hole to be in the right spot for th ball joint nut. I also bought a reducer union for the passenger side brake line. You need a 1/4" female to 3/8" male union. (Advance Auto Parts $1.37)

Total cost: 185 bucks
