Found an auction on ebay that happen to be local to me, and was listed very poorly. I got me a set of 99+ wheels with the stock Goodyear Eagle ZR's (5-6/32's left) for 200$.
I laid them up against the car and took a couple pictures. I plan to do the poor man's 5 lug swap because I am a poor man. That will include continental/SVO/Mark VII front rotors (I'll probably use wheel spacers, a hack saw, and a BFH to make the center clear the dust cover), and ranger/Aerostar axels in the rear. This will allow me to use my current brakes which are still in great condition.
BTW, the ponys arn't for sale yet.

What defeated you? I'm rather familiar with pulling axles after my drama with them last week, so ask away.

well i read through my chilton's on how to remove them, i removed the small bolt inside differential which i thought was sposed to allow the main deal to tap out...nota clue, nothing was moving and i had things to do.

If you can get the entire 8mm bolt out, the large pin should slide out, maybe with a tap or two. Your car is a stock 5spd with 3.45's, right? The kingpin should make it past the ring gear in your case - it didn't with mine (3.73's). Once that's out, the rest is cake; literally half an hour and all the brakes were on both sides for me.
