so i have been looking around for some upper and lower rear control arms for my car and came across a set on craigslist.

Mustang upper& lower control arms

so they were off of a fox body mustang but so much stuff is interchangeable between foxes and our body style. i also see on jegs they list an upper and lower control arm kit that is supposed to fit 79-04 mustangs.

it isnt the MAC brand but you can probably see where it got the wheels turning in my head.

so i ask, will these work on my 02 GT ???

79-98 use diffrent size lower bolts (smaller) than 99-04's, so if they were made for a fox, then no they wouln't work.

so that is the only difference between the two?

wonder how Jegs gets away selling those control arms for all 79-04's
...or at least listing them that way...
