I'm thinkin of picking up a whole rear end for sale. It's out of a 95 GT. Everything is on it still, including the rear disc brakes. Will everything just bolt up to my Fox body?

It will bolt in, And work, It is 3/4 " longer on each side than your fox rear end. If you run stock width rims it drings the tire just to the edge of the wheel lip, It actually looks better IMO. If you want wider rims you will have to have them made with the correct backspacing. There is several members here that have them in and probably have pics..

Is that due to the disks?

See my garage for pics of a 95 rear with 17x9 03 cobra wheels. You will see how its fits with the rear fenders

Nice looking car. It appears the tire ends flush with the top outer edge of the quater. Does the suspension hold it off without any rubbing?

It will bolt up but to do the brakes you will have to do some conversion with the mc and the e-brake. http://mjbobbitt.home.comcast.net/mustang/5lug.html

i had to roll the rear fenders on mine, but its all a application and car specific ordeal. stock ride height, you might be able to get away with not rolling them. i emphasize MIGHT

I have the 94-98 rear in my car. I have Bullitt springs which just barely drop the ride heightfrom stock. I do not have rubbing issues with my 17X8 rims and 245 width tires and did not need to roll my fenders.

Its the same housing as the Fox, you must be thinking of the 99+ cars. The 94-98s extra width actually fills out the fenderwells nice and looks better than stock!
