5 lug to 4 lug conversion

[pixiepooh]

Hi I'm new here and was wondering if I can convert my 91 ranger 5 lug to a mustang 4 lug so I can fit fox body five star rims on my ranger?

I wouldn't bother converting the rotors or drums over to four lug. Even if you could most fox body guys convert over to five lug.
My advice would be to find a later body style mustang and get the rims off of it.

You can find the rims your talking about in a 5 lug pattern pretty easy, just gotta be patient, where are you located? I can prolly look up which regions around you have the most wheel options as far as craigslist. I Know knoxville has a bunch.

What you might look for is wheels to fit the "SN95" Mustang. From what I could find, they went back to the 5x4.5" bolt pattern in 1994. That's the Ranger pattern. 5x4.5" = 5x114.3mm.

My truck is a 91 so I want the 5 star fox body style rims.It's just the look I'm looking for.I really don't like the 95 and up styles.

im pretty sure that the gt from that era were five lug so you should be able to find the ones you want without changing to 4lug

My '89 GT was a 4-lug, now converted to 5-lug. They didn't re-introduce the 5-lug until 1994.

wow that sucks. what was ford thinking

 

[RatDog8o8]

Yeah, kinda what I have wondered myself. Went right back to the same bolt pattern they used to have before '79.

That is just not a good thing to do....what cheapen the Ranger with crap wheels? Buy some real nice rims (the right rims) and don't worry about it......

the 91 i had for about a week had 5lug so i just assumed that was the norm

For a stock car four was enough to hold the wheels on, what more do you need?

So you're looking for what they call the "Pony" rims....

So is doable or is it going to cost an arm and leg?
