The ONLY reason to put 94+ balljoints in is if you are swapping spindles for the 94+.

You can buy new control arms for the front that have new bushings and balljoints for around $190.

Yes,don't waste your time changing the ball joints and bushings.I got the FRPP control arms for $175/pair.They are upgraded so ride and handling improved too.

where can you buy new control arm for $175? Bushings and ball joints will cost me $94. It's not worth it to beat on some ball joints and bushing for $75.

Check Summit - the part number IIRC is M-3075 and a letter after the 5 (I cant remember since I've looked 'em up for both the fox and SN; they use different letters).

Good luck.

Summit says the M-3075-A kit is 299.99 and the M-3075-D kit is 169.99.

is the D kit really for new mustangs as mentioned above??

Heck if im gonna spend 69 bucks a piece on ball joints i might as well get the whole thing..

thanks

EDIT: NEVERMIND i found it on Jegs site....the A kit is fox and D is SN95....but damn!! why 300 bucks!!!

I beleive D's are SN95 arms, specifically 03/04 cobra arms which offer those cars increased turning radius for whipping donuts and stuff.


Won't work on a Fox though because they are wider. Also, no SN95 balljoints with fox spindles

When I was in the market for them I opened the Ford Racing Catalog and started calling retailers until I found the best deal.
