Originally if the calipers wern't so thick they would clear the wheel I started to modify the caliper and got close to making it work, then one of the guys at the PD needed brakes on his 93LX 4banger which he have converted to a
5.0L, I had to swap the struts as well as the spindles, I also have a 1/4 spacer behind the wheel to help clear the $7 "escort" center caps, In the rear I had no problem whats so ever with the drum brake rear or the Cobra disc brake rear I have
