we have the chance to buy a 1995 mustang ex street car,it doesnt have a rearend,engine,or transmission.
i was looking at the front struts to see what it would take to convert to 4 lug,and what rearend would fit under it.

also noticed the K member looks prettymuch the same as a fox body mustang K member.

anyone know what parts from the 1979-1993 fox body mustangs will fit on this?
i have heard the control arms from the 1995 mustang will fit on fox body..so im really hoping this rearend i have from a 1988 T-bird will fit in the 1995 mustang.

We had a guy here in IL built a '95, heavy car but was bad fast, he won a lot with it. I was told the 7.5 rearends are interchangable between the two cars. They left it a 5 lug. The LCAs are about 1" longer on the newer stangs vs the fox chassis. BUT, guys did complain when he first brought it out as the '95 never had a 4 cyl. in it from the factory, may want to check the rules at your track.
