    whats all involved in this, and how hard is it? and before you tell me i have searched, the search engine wont let me put in lug so therefore i posted a thread. but anyways any help would be greatful. im going to be putting 17" Cobra R wheels on there, and i want to get 5 lug cause i dont like the look of the 4 lug ones, it just looks odd missing a lug.

    you need a 9" front rotor... the early fox 5.0's had 9" front disc's... 87-93 have 10"... if you get a 10" rotor you'll need the spindle, caliper, and pads as well... once you take off the caliper you'll break the front inner seal, you'll need those also. Then from there you have your inner and outer wheel bearing... might as well get 2 of those too. Once all that is bolted up in the front, you need a FRPP 5 Lug Axle/Drum kit... I've seen some on ebay that go for like $125...
