They have them for the newer vics, trying looking under a 1995 crown vic, they are there. They even have motorcraft, but at around $190-Phil

Wait, am I hearing this right, I can get control arms from a 95 vic to go on a town car.
I think i read about this here, that a 90's Pnather control arm can work on a box. Can i please get some validation on this"To Find yourself, you must first lose yourself"

As far as I know all lower control arms are the same 80-02 on CV, GM and TC
I've always gotten mine at either Advance, Auto Zone or O'Reilly.
They come with bushings installed and that makes things a lot easier.
Auto Zone part number is 520-207 drivers side and 520-208 pass side. $165.99 each.
And with some shopping around you may find them cheaper than that.Comment

Lowers are interchangeable 79-02, however the ball joints changed in mid 94 IIRC, so unless your swapping knuckles/doing the big brake swap just buy the earlier ones.2020 F250 - 7.3 4x4 CCSB STX 3.55's - BAKFlip MX4

Yeah I cross referenced the numbers, I went with the 91 CV. Same as a Grand mar and Towny
I think the diff between Raybestos and ACdelco is that I think the ACdelco come with greasable ball jointsAttached Files"To Find yourself, you must first lose yourself"

Dorman site shows non-greaseable on that part. Jerks.

Rock Auto has the control arms, just need to change the balljoints out if you're keeping the stock box stuff. The lower control arms are the same up through 2002. You can also get the upper control arm (for big brake swap) by buying 98 upper control arms and (2) 92-94 control arm shaft.Originally posted by porschpow View PostComment

YEAH THE WAY ROCKAUTO IS is that they won't have 89 lincoln town car conrtol arms but for the comparable CV or MGM... ...that same year, you do. Go figure. Those people that don't know how Panthers are would be highly discouraged. The AC delco prof series complete control arms are a good deal (and include the greasable ball joints and bushings!!!)))
Anyways, I need to get the front end fixed, this is higher in my priorities than the 3G alternator upgrade and the headlight relay upgrade."To Find yourself, you must first lose yourself"
