Title: 71 to 73 lower control arm
Post by: pcharest2000 on September 29, 2008, 10:47:19 PM
I am looking for a repair kit for bushing and balljoints for the 71 to 73 control arms.  Help would be greatly appreciated.  Was off the phone with racer Walsh and he seems to be out of stock!

I found the hard way that post 74 (Mustang II) arms are not the same after spending over a week to get the lower ball joint off the spindel.
