Let's see what's out there....


i guess you could, but why when you just look for a lil newer with discs already, itd save you money from buying calipers and rotors.

but im looking to get a turbo coupe or just turbo my carb 2.3 right now. once i figure out which one im going to look for a disc explo rearend
 
sounds like its going to be crazy
 
here are a couple non driveway shots of my truck. the pics were taken in the guadalupe mountains, right by the texas NM border. it was about 6am when I took them. I was about 600 miles from home at that point afinished this trip up at 718 miles on the odometer.

 
rat ranger, very nice and CLEAN! I am digging it for sure. I always thought 20's looked to big but your truck has proven me wrong.

How did you do your rotor swaps and what size rim has to be run to clear them?

The rear I used the caliper bracket from northracecarsand the cobra soft line. the front I got the hubs and caliper spacers from a guy that goes by racin' ranger on RPS. you have to run atleast 17s to clear the brakes so I have a 17in steel for spare. in the front of an Ibeam truck you have to have the newer spindle that has the bolt on calipers. Total for the entire brake swap was abut 1300, thats for rotors, brackets, the new hubs and adapters, new front bearings(figured might as well while it was apart), cobra lines for the rear, calipers(these could be cheaper as I used new 10th ann. calipers) and fluid. it al bolts on, you just have to drill the hole in the front line out to 7/16 for the mustang banjo bolt.

This is my '95. Finally got the fuel lines bent and extended and the elctrical gremlins resolved and fired it up for the first time in over a year yesterday.

And for the record I hate the term lowrider. A lowrider is something specific and doesn't encompass all lowered vehicles.

It was all done on a stock tailgate, still needs smoothing over:icon_thumby:
