Foxbody Sn95 Spindle Question

[Wetblanket]

A buddy of mine has a 96 gt hes parting out i've read up on the rear end stuff but the front spindles is what have me confused. I've read that you cant use 96 spindles on the stock k member has to be 94-95 is this true or can i use the 96 spindles on my stock k member?? Thanks

Go to the 5.0 fox tech threads, there is a whole lotta info there on 4 lug to 5 lug swaps.
I'd answer your question but it would be confusing and probably wouldn't work anyway.

You can use them....but 94-95 Spindles are really the preferred spindle for use on a Fox body with stock K-member.

I've seen plenty of guys run the 96+ spindles, but there are negative consequences to this. If you are in the parts acquiring stage, I'd try and get some 94-95 versions...even if the 96+ spindles are free.
