how hard is it to put fr500 10.5 on a foxbody lx with stock 8.8 rear end??

Not hard at all . Jack up the car, make sure you put Jackson for safety. Bolt urn old rim, and put on the new fr 500s on. Make sure its not bigger than a 295 in the rear. You might have rubbing issues

You will have rubbing issues if you use jackson for safety and small children are around.
