Hello,
I read a thread a while ago (cant find it at the moment) listing the benefits of swapping the 1989-1992 Thunderbird spindles for 1993 and newer Thunderbird hubs/spindles. I think they said it didn’t have to come out of a Supercoupe. I would like to upgrade my 1991 SC and I pulled the entire Left and Right front hubs from a 1996/1997 LX (with double piston calipers) and was wondering if there was anything I should or should not do/use when I make the swap. Do I need to buy any adapter kits? Should I just buy Mustang rotors and/or calipers and not re-use the Tbird ones? I’m hoping I can keep using my stock brake booster but I don’t want to cut corners or do anything dangerous. Any advice would be appreciated.
Thank you!
