Now that I think about it, I think i bought one for my 84. I remember having to specify oval bushings in place of the round one for the rear LCA. I'll see if I can find the number.

I don't want to provide you with misinformation so I won't confirm it until I go back out to the shop to check my kit #.

The bushing kits for the 83-86 are the same as the Mustangs of the appropriate vintage.  All use oval bushings in the RLCA and you'll need to specify/verify the front sway bar diameter.
