Do a cheap 5-lug swap (drums for now) and grab those (probably cheap)!

You can do a regular 5 lug swap for 175 for parts plus the price of the rims.

What is that a 83? you can do the 5 lug swap cheap, in the rear you'll just need the ranger axles and drums, on for the front you can put 88 4 banger ranger rotors, you'll have no upgrades, but you'll have 5 lug...cheap

i know, but i still not sure whether i would like it and id rather spend that money in other places.

problem is i dont really have the time to do it. the only way i would be able to do it anytime soon is over x-max break and that would mean i would have to find it all. ill try but i will most likely do the spacer thing firs to make sure i like it.

for the cost of the spacer you can do it the right way, and you can sell your ponys to help with the cost, but it's your car

The rear end is the easy part in my eyes...

I would read up and find someone running those spacers before doing it yourself!

I'm sure you can do it, If not i'm sure there is a stanger in the area that will help you, You are the "little brother of stangnet" use your leverage, that and we'd all help the best we can, we bleave in you.....to do it the right way

I agree the front is what always scares me, but with it being a v6 you don't need the big brake upgrade and can use the ranger rotors

Jack the rer of the car up.. Remove tires. Take rear cover off and drain differential fluid. Push in on axles and remove c-clips. Slid axles out and retrace steps with new axles.. If im missing anything someone else will clue you in.
