In Reply to: I had the EXACT same question on down the board........... posted by Craig Selvey on December 14, 1999 at 18:17:26:
Try and get the info from your local Ford parts department. Or...call a good junkyard/salvage yard. They should have cross overs at the yards, and the dealer should have part numbers for each. If they are the same part number...
Auto Krafters should show identical part numbers for either if they are the same.
: Here is what I found out from going to the junk yard and looking in the Hollander Exchange Books:
: The Upper control are is the same as a 1967-1973 Mustang
: The Lower control arm is the same as a 1968-1973 Mustang
:
: Now, I haven't ordered my rebuild kit yet for the front end, but you are right, the Mustang places run great specials on "kits". When I order a kit and get it installed, I will report back and let you all know what I found that works.
: If anybody else has any experience in this area...please chime in.

: : Does the maverick share the same upper and lower control arms from any of the mustangs? I need to replace mine and I see alot of ads for complete rebuild kits for mustangs. I was wondering if any of them would fit the maverick. Any info would be great. Many thanks in advance.
