4 to 5 lug conversion
What's it gonna take for me to swap out my 4 lugs for a 5 lug design? Will 5 lug axles fit in my LSD? And do I just have to change hubs? BTW 81 RX GSL with LSD.

love the braaaap
There are no 5 lug axles for the first gen. If your thinking of 2nd gen, they are independant rear suspension so the axles (or half shafts as they call them) will not work. You either have to go with a whole ford rear end (no small job and a custom drive shaft is required) or go with the independant rear suspension from the 2nd gen (again no small job and actually never been done). Your best bet is the wheel adapters from CP Racing.
