You can use SN95 spindles, rotors and calipers, or 5.0 spindles, calipers and MARK VII front rotors (I think its mark VII, could be one of the others...)

You can. Just buy the ranger bearings, seals and dust caps to go with it. You may need to clearance the rotor or caliper a little as they might rub under braking.
