One thing I am curious about is the width on the 94 up spindles and 11" brakes, I do not want to increase the track at all, do you guys know if using that set will make the wheels stick out?
using the 94-95 stuff will track the same width as the fox bodys.when you go 96 and newer then it tracks 8mm wider than the foxes.i did that on my 92 coupe and works just fine.they didnt go with the aluminum calibers till 99 when ford had a contract with PBR.all the rotors are the same size 94-04.now if your going to do rear disks then you need to get the brake booster and master cylinder from a 94-95 stang,v8 or v6 it doest matter.the fox master cylinder is a 2 port and the sn cars are a 3 port,so you can either get a pro portioning valve(not sure how to spell it) or convert the fox to a 3 port by taking the nut out of the p-valve that faces the firewall and get a fitting to fit it and make a new line.i also did that and works fine.you only need to do the conversion if your doing the rear disks and want them to work properly.you dont have to do it but your pedal will be alittle stiff but not bad.

Re: 5 lug front conversion

currently doing the conversion myself. if you use the 94-95 spindles, you will retain the stock fox body track width. I suggest you go to Sn95 Brake upgrades this is a great website that will explain everything. click on 79-93 5 lug to see conversion options.
