did you get a whole 94+ rear axle or upgrade to 94+ rear disc? I asked because in the tech thread sticky about 5 lug & brake upgrades, a guy posted that he used the bracket from a 94+ on his original axle. he had to cut and grind and reweld it but, when I PMed him about his set up, I didn't get a reply. thanks and your setup looks nice. You have the same DR I had on mine. be careful if you ever get caught in the rain.

you dont have to reweld it, you can just cut the bracket enough so it slides over the inside of the axle and it works mint that way, better than the conversion brackets IMO(ive run them both). You also do not need anti-moan brackets with this setup

John did you put longer studs up front? If not I strongly suggest it, they really need to come past the rim surface...

Wow, they really fill up the wheel well's, don't they? You're going to love the ET Street Radials. I had them on my Cougar and used to dead hook every time....and that was with 465lbs/ft of torque.
