I posted awhile back about finding a front suspension kit...and I asked about Mustang parts. All of the Mustang places sell kits WAY cheaper than any Maverick supplier sells them.
After some checking, I finally called "Canadian Mustang" and ordered a kit for a 1972 Mustang. Even the salesperson said it would interchange.
When I get the kit and size everything up, I will let you know if this kit will work on a Maverick or not. In the kit I ordered it had (2) fully loaded upper control arms, (2) fully loaded lower control arms, new strut bushings w/hardware, new spring perches and coil insulator pads, new sway bar links and bushings, and shock absorber bushings. All the bushings are made of Midolyne, which promises precise handling without the noise and harsh ride of polyurethane or rapid wear and poor handling of rubber. All this for $299.90 After shopping around, this was the most complete kit for the money. Try pricing a Maverick upper control arm from AutoKrafters...about $249 each!!
Anyways, when I find out it all works, I will post a phone number here for all of you.
