5 lug swap...double checking.

Be careful on the axles. Some Ranger axles are too large and won't work.

he needs two right-side ranger axles, the left side ones are too long

as for the interior comment...all black with white leather seats would be HAWT...kinda like the 92/93 feature cars, just without the white door panels

Just get a '93 Cobra booster. Virtually the same performance as a Sn95 booster, but minus the sledgehammering of the strut tower.

You SHOULD change the booster out.

I used a 94-95 V6 booster in my car. Installation wasn't that bad, but i had the intake and valve cover off

How hard was it to remove the old booster? Do you have to remove the dash or can you get to the bolts easilly enough?

I've got a new dilema...my rear drum pads are going, so now would be great time to do the upgrade...however this will be one of the larger jobs I have tackled. Still debating on if it's worth it, but the '93 Cobra booster is pushing me in the upgrade direction.

Not that hard, but i did it back when i was flexible lol. It's just a matter of reach your hand up. Not too hard.


Can't help you on replacing the shoes on drums. The only drum brake work i've ever done is when i took mine off and tossed em in the trash

Oh - no help needed on drums...I can toss mine too!
Seriously, I just need to make up my mind if I want to start (and potentially get stuck) on the upgrade...I am nowhere near flexible, so I gotta take that into consideration.

my drum brake's are needing to where they need done...i guess ill replace the brakes when i do the axle swap....i just hope i can get all the parts and get it done before this year is over

guys quick question..i like the look of 25th lx with the 18" bullets....know that look iis hard to pull off....you think i could pull it off with my LX? or problay not?

 

[stykthyn]

replace the shoes now. they are the same ones you will use when you do the 5 lug swap. you are just swapping a 5 lug drum for a 4 lug one.

If you're going to do the brake booster, do yourself a favor and just pull out the driver's seat first...

Personally, I think anything over 17" is overkill. 17" bullets look just fine

as you are right...17's it is then!
