sn95 '1995 rear end for TBird Reply #1 – January 08, 2009, 11:43:35 AM It's a drop-in mountingwise. You planning on swapping to discs? More work needed there(with mastercylinder, proportioning block, etc) Either way, the brakelines between the body/axle will need to be dealt with. No idea on the ratios...should be on the tags. The SN95 7.5 is probably a 3.27 or 3.45. Quote Selected

I'am not afraid of work with brakelines and cylinder if I can use sn95 parts. Quote Selected

"Fox" covers a bunch of cars, with 4 different wheel bases, from '78-'93.Your TBird is a Fox-chassied car.It looks like you used the shorter Mustang (Fox or SN-95)rear control arms. Both are shorter than the TBird ones. We say as such, because from a couple of the pics, it looks like the rear wheel is a bit far forward in the wheel well, which is what would happen if the Mustang arms are used. Quote Selected
