I have one of these for each side of the suspension, but I cannot recall how it mounts. The holes index with the strut.

I took the suspension apart quite a while ago, so I cannot remember, and it is not shown in the FORD shop manual either.

Thanks up front.

I believe it goes on top of the studs for the strut rod on the lower control arm. The nuts bolt the strut rods in to place and that bracket goes between the nuts and the lower control arm. I'm not really sure what the purpose of that bracket is but I'm rather sure thats where it goes.

It's a 64-66 turn limit stop.

I was just in the garage looking it over again and I thought it was a limit of some sort.
Thanks.
I think the vertical goes positioned on the rear when it mounts on top of the strut.

they mount to the bolts that go through the strut rod and lower control arm. They are a steering stop and mount so the steering arms on the spindles hit to limit the steering.
