    Find a Holanders parts interchange manual. Get the OEM part numbers and you can see what parts are the same.

    Question, are you just trying to have a wider range to ask for at the parts counter or are you thinking there will be a mechanical advantage with other model parts?

    i think the granada/monarch line is the only other car with alot of suspension interchange with mavericks

    but going into the parts store and asking for a mustang _____ for your maverick isnt going to give you any performance advantage over just getting the maverick part. matter of fact they'll probably just hand you the same piece at the same price.

    I'd bet that if you went in asking for Mustang pieces some places might charge you MORE money. :rofl2:

    It does happen ... Lincoln parts cost more than Ford parts for the same items.

    There was a GM bright white paint that if you asked for it in a Corvette or Caddy code, it cost more ... it was the same exact stuff with three different codes. :rolleyes:
