what 5lug rotors you using? lincoln ones? if so you may have a clearance issue with the center cap fitting.

the dust cover will not allow you to run the center caps on those wheels.

They will not work. They will bolt on, but you won't be able to put the center cap on.


I've seen a guy cut a circle in the middle of the center cap for the spindle snout to stick through

You will have to cut a hole in the center cap, or leave it off. I would buy 94-95 spindles.

deff buy the spindles,much easier to do break jobs in the future anyway,better sealed wheel bearings and i believe bigger piston on the caliper.
