Can anyone tell me if my wheels will be further out in the wheel well with '94 spindles over the '86-'93 spindles that are on my '85 now? If so, how much further out?

Apparently my ex-husband made that mistake.

I don't think so. I've known a few people who have done that swap, and never had any real changes in wheel placement. I assume you are doing this to get the 5 lug wheels, and much better brakes that come on an SN.

Thanks.

Yes, doing it for '98 cobra calipers and rotors. The '98 spindles push the wheels out, and I may have clearance problems if I use those.
