TBird Turbo Coupe Rear 5 Lug Conversion
Some one must have done this before.
I have a 1988 Thunderbird Turbo Coupe rear, disc brake, which came with 4 lug pattern. The vented rotors are 10". I've swapped out the axles for 5 lug and now find that 10", 5 lug rotors aren't available. Other than redrilling the 4 lug pattern to 5 (Don't like the idea.) Modify the brackets to accept 10.5" 5 lug rotors from a Mark VII. Any help is greatly appreciated as I have to believe this conversion has been done using something off the shelf.:confused: |
What did the 84-86 Mustang SVO use? They were 5 lug, but not sure of the rotor diameter. They may be hard to find though. Try this site:

Thanx for the assistance. It appears from what I've read the standard 4 lug 10" brake rotor is drilled for 5 lugs and the center hole opened up to fit the axle. I appreciate the replies and sure will have many more questions in the future!
