Only option that allows you to use all the nice 5-lug rims are with you using the rearend out of a 94-95 GT Mustang and the front hub assy from the same car. You can expect to have about $650-$700 to do it right and that also will get you the 8.8. You can save money if your not going to a V8 later and get the V6 7.5" rearend and probably save $200.

From another post here, 1990 Ranger 5 lug discs will bolt right up to the 4 lug spindles. This will save $$ by avoiding the spindle change. You still need the parts for the back though...

If you have a '88 you don't use the Ranger rotors but the Lincoln Mark VII rotors.
Ranger rotors convert 5 lug for '86 and older Mustangs. You will still limit your rims to 5 lug that have center caps that cover the lugs. To use all the new style rims you must install the 94-95 spindle assy.
