Planning on swapping brake components from a 2002 GT to a 90 LX 5.0. I know that the rear track is different and i need to buy new axles. Of course theres also the issue of the break lines and such. My main concern is will the front spindles fit in properly? They are SN95 spindles right? And what other things would I have to do to get them on there? Thanks for any help!

The entire rear end on the '99 - up cars are longer than a Fox. I know from experience. I would just buy the calipers, brackets that hold the caliper to the axle housing, rotors (or buy new), dust shilds, and get all the bolts. Then I would get Ranger axles. The backs would be done. For the Front: 2000 spindles will give you a wider front track width. How much I don't know. Check out Matt90Gt's site. By far the most comprehensive brake site I have ever seen That man is a genius for creating that site, and I think many Stangneters will back me up on that.
