Well I guess no body has the answer you are looking for. I would sugest getting intoutch with Richard Oben or Gordon Levy (they are both in the "ask an expert" sections of this forum). I am confident that Richard Oben could answer your question and probably Gordon too.

I forgot to mention, but unless you are REALLY on a budget then you are better off using some SN95 or newer spindles and brakes. That way you get more brake options and a litte better geometry for suspension and steering (94-95 mustang spindles are best for avoiding bump-steer problems).

Bart:
I currently have a Fox setup and am able to use the CobraIII deep lip on the same setup you have.
I originally bought the Medium lip for the fronts and was not able to mount them because of interference with the upper ball joint.
With the deep lip I have about 1/4 inch of clearance.The advise to go to SN95 is good ,for all the mentioned benefits plus ,if you want to use the Hallibrand "Spinners"it makes it a snap.With the Fox setup you will have to do some machining to make them work,there isn't enough room around the dust cap area unless you use spacers and use longer wheel studs.
This topic was discussed a few weeks back ,you may want to look it up.
HTH,
Paul
