    Looking to get new parts for rear suspension like control arms and such

    Well I was looking up in one of my books and saw that we have the same suspension from 68-88 crown victorias and country squires so I went looking for some after market suspension stuff So what I found so far are these http://store.summitracing.com/partde...5&autoview=sku
    so what do you think will this work
    than I got to thinking didnt ford use alot of 8.8 rears in different cars and I assuming that they have a similar or same suspension set up so than I found these

        Mustang rear end is narrower. there are no coil spring holders because the springs sit on top of the rear lower control arms.

        79-81 CV/GM used a 8.5" differential, 82 and up has the 8.8"

        78 and earlier full size cars got the 9" diff.
