I have a pair of spindles that I believe are off a '98 cobra.
PN's F6Z8FA & F5Z7AA cast into the spindles.

I bought a pair of spindles that are supposed to be off a '94 or '95.
PN's F4Z7AA & F4Z8AA cast into the spindles.

I am putting the spindles onto my '85 GT and need to be sure that I am using the spindles that place the wheel a little further into the wheel wells, which are the '94-'95 spindles.

How can I be sure that the second pair listed here, are in fact the '94/'95's?

The F4 represents 1994 (F represents parts for 1990 - 1999 parts), so those are correct. An easy way to tell is by looking at the steering arm. 94-95 spindles have curved steering arms, 96-04 spindles have a straight arm. More reference:

What spindles are these????? - Ford Mustang Forums : Corral.net Mustang Forum

One of the '98 steering arms is straight, and the other is curved. Both of the spindles that are supposed to be '94's have the curved arms though.
Thanks

Does anyone know how much wider the track will be?

with the '94 spindles, over the '86-'93 spindles that are on the car now. The outside edge of my front tires are right at the fender lip now, with no contact. I have the Cobra brake caliper set up off of a '98. What brake lines do I use to bolt up to the hard lines on the body?
