    I can't find new upper control arem spring seats and bushings anywhere but auto krafters. Will any other vehicle work? My car is a 1972 Ford Maverick 2 door, not a sport model. Thanks, Country

    They are the same as the Mustangs. Go to any Mustang supply house.

    c-mav., my dealings with mustang places is they don,t care for mavericks. i tried the 65'-73' and they still want a yesr. what i do is walk in and ask for the part for a 71' mustang and they have no ??????? one place told me the part would not work (like he knew something about mavs.) another place flat told me he had no! mav. parts in his place. so i just get the 71' parts now and walk out the door. jmo...frank...:bananaman :bananaman

    Good Idea

    Sounds like a plan to me. I am trying to find a mustang parts house in New Orleans or Houston, but so far no luck. Thanks Mr. Frank. Preston
