5lug conversion part list

[xplo89gt]

Doing a 5lug conversion soon, and trying to get together all the parts.

So far I have:
Aerostar Axles w/ 9" drums
SN-95 spindles
calipers
caliper brackets
hubs
pads

going to get ford heavy duty brake fluid, and rear dif fluid
also getting MM stainless steel brake lines
do i get these for a 87-93 or 94-95?

getting .330" spacers as well.

What else am I missing?
Any special tools required for the job?
Thanks.

master cylinder / rotors….and why are you using 9” axles and drum brakes?I’d recommend using an impact wrench for quick removal of the wheels. You’ll need 2 cotter pins as well for the ball joints. A few friends and some alcoholic beverages should make for a fun day

No, they are 8.8" axles from an aerostar. I believe the drums are 9" diameter.
Not sure, I may be wrong.

Anyway, I do have rotors, forgot to say that.

Now I wasn't going to do a master cylinder yet as I didn't think I needed it.
I plan on doing cobra brakes down the line and was going to do it with that.
But if I do need it which one should I get?

.330 spacer

Xplo, where did or are you getting your .330 spacer because I am in the process of this same upgrade. I was going to go the washer route but if I could get the spacer all the better.

thanks,
Paul

Yea me as well, Iv got the Baer kit waiting to be installed. If you know someone who can machine the washers for you, get a bunch of them made!!

Yea, I wasn't able to find any store selling them either.

A guy on the corral [corral.net] is selling them. He had a bunch made from steel to the exact measurements needed for the 5 lug conversion.

He is selling them for $23 shipped. Check in the corral classifieds under brakes for posts about them.

This is his email: [email protected]

I just sent my money order to him so I should be getting them in the next week.
