Default 1991 Grand Marquis Front Spindle Swap

Im looking to put Bullits on my 91 Grand Marquis, it isnt possible with the bearing style rotors. I have a 92 Town Car that has hat style rotors with the small hub. The bullits fit the Town Car. I got a pair of Town Car spindles from the junk yard but the upper ball joint is a slip in style vs a tapered fit. It looks like the town car upper control arm is the same mounting as the Grand Marquis. Are the frame mounts still the same from Town Car to Grand Marquis. I dont think Ford would have made different frames as that wouldnt be cost worthy. Any other ways to get the smaller hub let me know.

I used 94 Town Car spindles, and upper control arms. Alignment shop had no probs doing the alignment. Used stock Grand Marquis caliper and pads as they are the same as the Town Car. Im running a stock 03 Mustang GT Bullitt wheel, with 274/40/17s front and rear. Need bigger tires, they look too small. Pics later.
