The last person on earth without a digital camera or a cell phone has finally got my disposeable camera developed!!

I got my axles and drums back from the machine shop.

My drums were brand new, so I had the re-drilled to the new bolt pattern. I plan to replace them with 1983ish? Ranger drums when they wear out.

I had the stock Mustang II axles re-driled to 5 on 4 1/2" bolt pattern (Small 5 bolt Ford / Dodge / AMC). I had the machine shop press on new wheel bearings too. The bearings were original, so they were likely overdue! (I don't have a press so they were not replaced during the restification of the Mach).

The axles slid back in like stock. I had to replace the nearly new wheel cylinders. I think My brake standing ways and/or the beating it took to get the axles out killed my old wheel cylinders?? The pistons were broken!!

My favorite part of the conversion! 14x7" Magnum 500's and 225/60/14 and 245/60/14 BF Goodrich T/A's

Although I have not had too much time behind the wheel (finished it today) everything feels good. The new 245/60/14's hook up better then the old 235/50/13's and the 225/60/14's like the corners a little better then the 205/60/13's they replace. The front and back tires have no rubbing issues. (I have no front splash sheilds).
