I want disc brakes in the rear, and I'm doing a 5 lug setup anyway. But now I can get a rear end out of a 95 pretty cheap and it already has 3.73's in it. So, is it worth my time? Will it fit? I'll put whatever wheels on it to fix the offset if that is the only problem...if it would look right with anything.

Yes, get the booster and the master cylinder. Get the combination valve and brake lines and fittings from it too if you can flare lines and make them work woth your existing lines. You will need an adjustable PV and plug for the combination valve. All this is on Matt's site mentioned above. You can make the ebrake cables work also if you get the mount in the driveshaft tunnel. Are you using the 95 front spindles and brakes also? If not, that would be the best for a 5 lug conversion. As far as the rear, any 8" wide Ford wheel will fit just fine. 9" Ford wheels you might have rubbing problems even with rolled fenders.

Good luck!
