Now when you say hub you mean the front disc right?
The Disc from an 87-88 Thunderbird turbo-coupe will because it is also a 4 lug bolt pattern and has the same diameter brakes. 11" I believe. The change over to the MN-12 '89 and up Cougar T-bird 5 lug brakes will not work with a fox body.
If you are wanting to convert the '89 to 5 lug, the easiest way you can do the swap is with an SN-95 '94-'04 mustang parts. The spindles, discs, rearend etc. Junkyards are loaded with them. There are other donors like the Lincoln MK7, ranger, etc.

No problem.
"It seems everyone is going to 5 lug rotors and axles, and for a good reason. The wheel choice is much better. For an 87-93 Mustangs with non-GT brakes with 10" discs. A set of 86 SVO rotors and GT spindles for the front, and a pair of drivers side axles out of an 85-89 Ranger, with the 5 lug drums off of the same. The rotors from the Ranger are identical to the stock 11" four lug rotors in every way except the lug count. Similarly, the ranger axles are the same as stock, except the lug count."
Super cheap way.
