Spindles/Axles the same?

Im not sure if I am reading your post right, but spindles and axles are NOT the same thing. The spindle is the piece that twists with the steering on the front suspension that the hub/rotor rides on. In the back in your rear end is where your axles are located, at the driving wheels. This is why rearends are often referred to as axle housings. This may be the actual name, you'll have to forgive me as I have had a few more drinks than I should have tonite.

So the cheapest way to do it as I understand are markvii rotors in front and 2 driver side ranger axels in the back. There is a member on here that has a very good site, I dont have it in my bookmarks or I would link it for you, but I am sure someone will.

edit: edited ranger side axles cuz I was wrong

You can use the rear axles out of a Thunderbird Supercoupe, the five lug there will work perfectly, you can proably find one in the junkyard, as far as front spindles you can use front five lug spindles off of any mustang up to 98'.

????????????????

The 5 lug Supercoupe has an independent rear end. Will not work at all.

For the cheap conversion, you use the Mark VII rotors for the front, if yours is a 87-93 V8 car, and use the DRIVERs side Ranger axles or PASSENGER side Aerostar axles.

Matt90GT's website is http://svo73mm.cjb.net . He has all the info.

Good luck!

The fox, Read matt's site thoroughly, it is the king of information for a 5 lug swap, I read the site 2 or 3 times before I did my swap and it was perfectly, I cant reccomend it enough!
