I believe that you just need the rotors for a pre 86 V8 or 4cyl car... but they will still be tiny.

If you can swing it still go with the SN95 spindles. I use 94-95's on my coupe with 04 GT PBR twin piston alum calipers. Only needed a 1/4" spacer to run my Summit 15x4 "pro stars" skinnys. Still had enough thread to use the stock studs with no problems.

Far and away the best brake upgrade I've done on my coupe...and it had the larger 11" disc stock being a 87+ V8 car.

If you need a set, I've got the spindles, rotors and calipers off my '88 that are taking up space in the garage...

You can run the front rotors off a 90 areostar van. Samething as the 4 cyl 4 lug mustang rotor in 5 lug.

did u use the ranger rotors?

Ya, the rotors were for a ranger. I can go out and measure the overall diameter, hat height, center diameter and all that good stuff if you want just to make sure.

In fact, may do that just to be sure, as now the more I think about it, I'm wondering if I didn't get the Lincoln ones. Course, if I could remember what came in the kit 5 years ago.....


Alright...11" daimeter; 1-3/16" step, 1-5/16" outer hat; 3-3/8" inner length(rear seal to lip of hat); 1-3/4" outside bearing race diameter; 2-3/8" inside bearing race diameter. Rear seal is still on, so that was from the lip of the seal.

Hope this helps!
