I also browsed through their catalog but no measurements are available there. I already know the Town Car measurements but I can't find anything on Fox Mustangs. Perhaps I'm using the wrong search terms on Google, but I still haven't found anything there either.
    I see ES is not showing as much as before, but in general between google and the es site you find out the part numbers for the isolators in question, mustang and caprice, compare to the ES dimensions against some stockers and bob's yer uncle as they say.



    Not trying to be obnoxious here, I can't find the p/n's I know I have written down here somewhere. I seem to remember them as Caprice parts, Zoomie shows Mustang pieces, I have a feeling both are different, you just got to keep digging around until you can confirm one or the other.

      Sorry to bring up a dead thread.

      But Alex, is this the ES upper spring isolator that will work on a '79-91 CV?

            That's for the rear btw. I don't think there are any in front.

              Cool. I'm looking for the rear. I never replaced them when I replaced the rear springs. The front isolators came with the front end poly suspension kit for the '92 CV. That worked perfectly on my car.

                the front spring isolators come with the front bushing bushing kits from ES... search for 92-02 front bushings and that kit will fir 79-02 civi setups.

                  what he said. There are front isolators, they sit on the top of the spring against the frame. I think its the 92-97 bushing kit that is needed though. One of the lower control arm bushings changed somewhere along the line. Its compatible, but you'd have to change the arm to use the later bushing or something.

                    Just did mine last month. All the bushings for the kid for the 92 crown vic work with stock box control arms. Front spring isolator as well.
