Okay, looks like I'm getting this done next month and I'm excited as all hell. But I want to make sure I have the little things ready as well.
First: I gather I need 10 of these for the new Mustang front hubs, and that these are the right dimensions:
I'm not sure if there's any particular length of them that would make things easier / harder (there are a lot of variations), or if people have a preferred brand (I see Gorilla mentioned a lot).
Second: Whereas for the rear I need 10 of these:
ARP Auto Racing 100-7703 ARP Wheel Stud Kits

Third: Spindle nuts. Does anyone have the Ford part number for the OEM nuts? I don't want to mess around with the Dorman ones after all the horror stories I've heard about those, or screw around with a tap. I *think* these are it, but I'm not sure:
1989-2014 Ford Axle Nut - w710084s439. Genuine Ford® Parts & Accessories. Manufacturer Warranty. From the Dealership to your Door. Experts standing by.

Also, how many of these spindle nuts would I need for this?
Fourth: The "MN-12 to SN-95 Bolt Circle Change and Brake Upgrades" article mentions a couple of things that I haven't seen come up.
Even though I'm going with new larger rotors front and back and changing the front calipers, I don't need to change / customize my brake lines at all, correct? Gunn's thread and discussion here hasn't raised this, but the article appears to say that it's necessary.
The article also says you can't get the rear hubs on without a hydraulic press. Is this true? It doesn't seem to be mentioned in other posts, but seems a large stumbling block to doing this yourself.
If there's anything else a beginner is likely to miss in terms of doing this, I'm all ears.
