Hi Everyone,
Today I installed SN95 rear discs on my 91 Notch project. I started out with an SVO/LSC rear disc setup. The axle was out of an 88 Turbo Coupe with 3:73's. That setup was great for the 87 Saleen rims I have but I'm going to put them on my 91 hatch. The 89 5 star Saleen rims are going to be boxed up and stored. I have a set of 16x8 R9's that I bought in the early 90's(made in West Germany). I love the 5 start style and decided those would be perfect for my project. That's when I ran into the old offset problem. The SVO axles are are too long for most applications unless you have special offset rims ie. 87-91 Saleen. The R9's stuck out a mile and looked terrible. So, I did the SVO flipped calliper conversion using Ranger/ Aerostar axles. Finally, I bought a complete sn95 front and rear disc setup including the spindles and booster. Long story short, I wanted to put those on my Notch. So, I ordered a North Racecars stock trackwidth caliper mounting bracket kit! I took a ton of pics of my install so bear with me.
