about 1/2 inch more on the track width for the 1996 spindles than the 1994 bad if you want to run 17's or 18's on the rim and tire [ January 03, 2006, 07:35 PM: Message edited by: cdog301 ]

so why cant you run 17's or 18's, i am pretty sure that wrong, cuz for one, thats one of the main reasons people swap to 5 lug and also hella people run 17s with this setup.

Here's the scoop.
96+ spindles push each front wheel out 8mm further than the 94-95 spindles.
94-95 spindles have a curved tie rod end mounting arm. This means you are more likely to require a bump-steer kit if your car is lowered. The tie rod will we less parallel to the ground compared to the 96+ spindles.
I can tell you that I personally would NOT use 96+ spindles on a fox 5 lug conversion. I have 94 spindles and my car is close enough to rubbing. I would not want them to stick out anymore.
That's not to say it won't work. Some people have gotten them to work.
You can learn a lot from my site: http://www.mustangmotorsport.com/sn95conversion.html
