So, i have started to do some research into suspension systems for my mustangs. Everything I see says 87-93 or 79-86.

I know that the spindles are different.

Does anyone know what else changed?

only difference is the a-arms in the front and the brakes, everything from a 79-04 car can be swapped around on the suspension..

I had an 86gt with a full stock supsension that was lowered with brakes off of a 95 gt and it was awesome!! handled great..

Also the 90-93 cars had slightly different caster camber plate set ups; and I wouldnt say everything from the suspension can be swaped from a 94-04 car, but a good amount of it is the same.

check out foureyedpride.com - Home for info on the 86 an earlier cars. 86's may have the smaller brakes that came on the 87 up 4 cyl cars.

The strut towers are 79-89, then 90-93. They moved one bolt backward on the camber plate just a hair, and the towers are also different because of that too.
