I just got my spindles, controll arms etc in today, and my crossmemeber is being sent also. I was told that granada front rotors will work on my spindles, and looking at a listing for them it shows that 81-84 granadas share the same rotor as a latemodel mustang. I have some new 11inch 5 lug rotors for a previous stang I never used so can I use them. I know the larger of the two bearings arent correct, cause they wont set down far enough on the spindles. The top or outer bearing seems to work though. Ive done the usuual search but couldnt find anything. What do you guys know about the conversion stuff. I dont wanna have to mail order this whole truck, doesnt make it affordable then. also is there a site that list every specific part needed etc etc.
Thanks guys
Steve

 

here you go...

I gotta tell ya, John is the man in here!!! We need you John!

 

Dang John, my jaw just dropped. You are the man. these rotors, are they 5 lug?

 

aw shucks fellers you make me blush

they are 5 lug and I think 4.5" circle...whatever late model ford is now... it's too late in the evening of a long day to make my brain do much...

j

oh ?? BTW there will be a quiz on those part numbers tomorrow

 

All the part numbers are correct. I stopped by Oreilys Auto parts today and grabbed all the stuff there. Set me back $190 and some change. I would think this is a good deal, I bought tax free so that saved me some coin too, Only part they didnt have was the dust caps, but the ones form a 79-93 mustang, 4 pot or V8 cars work. The two outer bearings are the same as a 79-93 stangs also. now I need to find some mounting brackets for the calipers and Ill be set. Id make them myself if I knew what they looked like, anyone got pics???
Thanks again Fellas, I now only have a little over $200 so far into my front brakes, spindles and upper and lower controll arms.
