Fitment & Compatibility
The kit requires the specified 1974–1978 Mustang II-type factory disc spindle used by the listed Mustang II, Pinto and Bobcat applications; it is not a universal original-spindle conversion. DS-1186 includes one-piece iron hub/rotors, bearings and 1/2-20 studs, with 5 x 4.50 and 5 x 4.75-inch wheel options. Wilwood lists a +0.27-inch hub offset per side. Flexlines are separate, and the master-cylinder pushrod may need modification; verify the wheel drawing before installation.
Listed models: Mustang II; Pinto; Bobcat. Use the fitment table below for the individual years, submodels and equipment conditions.
