I keep looking at these things and can't understand why they call it a "Kit".....

The price seems too good to be true.

If someone would just take a quick look.... thanks

Those are the price for 2 front lower control arms.

FWIW- go with the 03-04 cobra lower control arms. IIRC they are like 4$ more and have better parts/features. They have graphite ball joints IIRC, are stronger, and reduce your turning radius 10%.

They do not have sph. bushings...you would not want them either if the car is street driven a majority of the time either. They give a fairly harsh ride.

That's about the going rate for them.
Summit, Jegs, LRS, the online Ford dealers, etc all should have them for about the same price (google: M-3075 D). Remember that some places price match.

Those are the pieces... M-3075-D

Everyone seems to have them at exactly the same price. I went ahead with Steeda
and picked up some urethane rack bushings while I was shipping...

Pick up some local inner tie rods, and everything up front will be new!

Word to your mother ! I can't wait... This baby is going to ride like new!

Might as well pick up some fresh rubber so I can get it aligned tight.

Well, with a mustang, you pretty much feel every bump anyway. I guess your
talking about the rack bushings... can't be that much difference and it will certainly
be worth the tighter steering.
