New Here 83 Thunderbird Reply #32 – October 04, 2012, 09:00:26 AM Dang so I should get some different rotors, what car should I get some from? Quote Selected
New Here 83 Thunderbird Reply #33 – October 04, 2012, 01:05:48 PM My buddy who had car, says ranger rotors are on there, idk Quote Selected
New Here 83 Thunderbird Reply #34 – October 04, 2012, 01:24:06 PM Since they are Ranger rotors, you'll be fine. I forgot about those . With the Lincoln rotors, there is the issue of the wheel centers not fitting. Sorry, deidn't mean to get you worried there. Quote Selected
New Here 83 Thunderbird Reply #35 – October 04, 2012, 02:07:10 PM ok good, now I have to worry with nine inch under the it, should I measure from outside of rear rotors to get correct width. Quote Selected
New Here 83 Thunderbird Reply #36 – October 04, 2012, 04:26:31 PM You could do that, then just add the measurement from the wheel mounting surface to the outside rotor surface twice for your width. Good luck and have fun :D Quote Selected
New Here 83 Thunderbird Reply #37 – October 06, 2012, 01:07:44 PM Rear end looks to be about 631/4. I am measuring from outside of rotors to outsid rotors and then adding the space in to the mounting surface. Quote Selected

New Here 83 Thunderbird Reply #40 – October 09, 2012, 04:04:36 PM Started the process of tucking wires, while waiting on some funds to get some other parts. I plan on using some wire loom, I just laid it out today to get idea where it will run and make sure nothing will be in the way. Quote Selected
