Fox Lincoln Continetal For A 5 Lug Swap

[junkyardjeff]

Found a early 80s Continental in a junkyard and noticed it has 5 lugs and since its a fox body will all the parts on it work. plus it has 4 wheel disc brakes.

rear axles are different length and mounting points IIRC, and and the front rotors will limit your wheel choice.

Rotor diameter may be different. I'd look elsewhere.

The Lincoln does look a little wider then the small LTD wagon but not sure if it was a optical illusion,not worried about wheel choice since it will most likely get aftermarket wheels.

It will still limit your selection. The snout on the rotors is so long it prevents the installation of center caps on many wheels.
