Title: Energy Suspension Parts
Post by: bigbada1 on August 20, 2010, 02:46:22 PM
Is there a difference between our 87/88 front control arm bushings and that of the same year mustang. Energy Suspension lists a kit for our birds that utlizes the old outer shells but sells the mustang kit that includes new outer shells???

Damit when I called Suspension.com they told me I needed the 4.3132 with new outer shells and since I am installling the CHE double adj uppers for the rear I needed B4.3129-G which is the upper axle bushings only. I think Im ok on the rear tho.

half of the mustang kit with the shells will work, the smaller front bushing, but the TC front control arm bushing is huge when comparied to the mustang one.

I just installed them in my car and work great!
