Tried this one i talk, but no one responded... let's try tech:


I found a set of spindles, hub, caliper, rotor, dust shield for a 5 lug swap off of a 1987 Lincoln Mark VII LSC for 75 bucks... worth it?

It's all in good condition... I'm just not sure if I want to spacer. Anyone use spacer's up front?

And lastly.... will Y2k's or 10th anniversary's fit??

Thanks bud.

Is there any other dust caps that would fit? So if i can get this to work, 75 bucks for the set is pretty good?

on my 93 i have the same parts save for the spindles. the lincoln spindles did not work. i used the rotors, calipers and bought new lines. the wheels that work with this swap are the 94-95 GT tribars, the 1994-1998 cobra, and the base wheels.

i paid 50 for mine, but had to buy V8 spindles that ran me 100 bucks. the Lincoln spindles would mount, but the taper on the spindles was wrong, and the nut would bottom out. If your car is a factory V8 car then use the calipers, rotors and buy new lines. i had to buy an adaptor for, if memory seves me, the passenger side. If your car is a factory 4cylinder car, then you can buy 84+ ranger rotors and use the factory calipers.

hope that helps.
And the stock master cylinder will work with the larger lincoln calipers. there was a question posed in another forum about that.
