T-bird rear suspension on PUP

got access to a 90s model T-bird independent rear suspension. wanted any input as far as usin it on my Zu.

Using it on my s-10 project (Sadistic Sled), I'm currently getting it shortened it, but it's working out pretty well for me

Plus who can resist 4-wheel cambering!

they are strong solid rearends and pretty easy to shorten if needed. Should work out good.

The biggest issue is probably going to be the bolt pattern which is 5x4.25(108mm). Not too many wheel options. The rear hubs can easily be redrilled or you can use Mustang Cobra hubs which will yield a 5x4.5 bolt pattern. And yes they do have to be cobra hubs in order to match the 28 spline axles.

Check out http://www.mn12performance.com/ if you need any poly bushings for the rearend.

a catch is that I already have wheels....they are 6 lug of course so there is the problem. can they be redrilled for 6 lug

i made the same thread like 3 months ago and got no resonse im jealous but yeah from what ive seen and heard t-bird irs is pretty easy to set up almost like a solid axle with ends that move freely

not sure if you could drill them to a 6-lug?

Kustomwerks does a lot of work with the T-bird IRS. They built my upper and lower control arms for both. Also you can get ahold of LaynRockers (John), he redrills hubs so he'll be able to answer those questions for you.

thanks guys, i appreciate it

tell ya what I will measure it out for ya and see of the 6lug pattern will work in the tbird hubs, I have my set here at work and can measure then later this evening.....John
