i currently have a 90 mark vii and an 83 mustang im thinking about using the mark as a donor for the 5 lug conversion for better brakes and stuff . but has anyone ever tried installing the air bags and struts from the mark too any help would be great thanks.

The old air bag systems on those Mark 7's are junk. Don't waste your time.

Brakes are pretty much 84-86 SVO.

You can use some, but not all the mark parts. For the cost of selling of parting out the mark 7, you could use the funds to buy sn95 cobra stuff and be better off.

However, if you wish to proceed I cAn tell you how
