5o5speed said:Because the Sn-95 axles are longer by .75 inch. I mistakenly put them on my car when I first did my swap and they rubbed the rear fenders like hell. You have to use "Fox" length 5-lug axles from a Ranger, Aerostar, etc.

bubba-dough said:We did the sn95 swap on my pals 89. We changed the entire rear from a 95 cobra to his 89. His tires in the rear rubbed like a mutha. I know many say they have not had a problem but we did. Another buddy who is a body man had to roll his fender lips. Problem solved.
We put on 17" Chrome Y2K's, then we tried his 16" black Cobra R's. I have no clue about the off-set of them. I know the Y2K's were bought for his 95. And the Cobra R's (knock-offs) were bought for his Nitto's. But thats all the info I know, it could be a different off-set.Shakerhood said:Did you use SN95 Wheels, or something aftermarket with a different offset?

Shakerhood said:What in the world kind of wheels did you have on your car? I have Cobra Brakes on the rear of my car with Bullitt wheels and my tires dont rub at all and the car is lowered about 3/4" all the way around. In fact I think the car looks a little better with the slightly wider rear axles as the tire fills out the fenderwell a little better than stock!
Kerpal said:What size tires are you running?
I want to get oem Bullitts as well, and have been wondering which axles would be best...

streetflossin said:just wondering, would it be wiser to do the sn95 front conversion, or just swap out the rotors with the 5 lug ones in that kit. you can get them same front rotors from north racecars for 99 plus shipping. i also want to upgrade my brakes too in the future so most likely the sn95 conversion would be the answer.
Phatt_daddy said:It has been a while but didn't someone post a link to a very descriptive write-up on using the ranger, bronco II, or the areostar rear axles and the sn95 front spindle setup? If it was on here I need that link again.
Thanks,
