Hello everyone,
I'm new to the site, just joined yesterday, and love it already. However, i have a few questions for you guys. I am in the process of doing a 2.3 to 5.0 conversion on my '91 coupe. As far as the 5 lug conversion goes, i have a buddy whose uncle owns a Crown Vic shop here in S.C. Would any Crown Vic parts transfer over? He has pretty much every model year there. I know you can go with a 5 lug conversion kit or swap from the old Ranger's, but if possible i would like to go with the whole Crown Vic rearend and everything and just get disk brakes and all in one package. Also, will any Crown Vic rotors, brakes, etc. fit as far as the front? Any input would be greatly appreciated, and if any of yall who have done the swap have any useful information on anything else to do with the process, please pass it on.
Thanks

First of all. Welcome to the site. Unfoetunately the Crown Vic stuff will not work as the Axle Length is too long.
