96+ spindles on a fox

8192 Views 27 Replies 16 Participants Last post by  Mustang5L5
I've read so much different info that I'm not sure what to think.

I purchased 97 Gt spindles, hubs, brakes. I want to install them with 00 mustang GT wheels. They are 17x8.

Will I need a bumpsteer kit to get the toe back in line?

Is anyone else using these spindles on a stock k member?

Any input?

BTW my car is an 89 5.0

Install the proper spindles on the car. Then you will feel what you have been driving around with the 2002 spindles on the car. You will probably find that you only need half as much steering correction during cornering.

JW,

You can use 94-95 spindles with an MM k-member, but your bumpsteer stack height is going to be 1" longer than if you were using the 96+ spindles. This is going to make the steering of the car have more compliance in it.

Adding the X2 ball joints makes the bumpsteer stack yet another 3/8" or so taller than this.
