That's a Fox Mustang bar correct?

Yes, it is. The fit was perfect though. It's been too wet out to get a good feel for it, but I don't get my tires into my fenders around tight corners now, so there's that. As far as steering is concerned, the lag between action and reaction is nearly gone.

so what you have there are the end links being of a closer provile than stock,, overall mount lenght is shorter?

The rear bars interchange. The difference in rear width is the axle shafts themselves.
It's Gumby's fault.

And to add to what Shawn said, the Stang 5.0 bars are the same as TC bars..all can be used interchangeably. Everything up to '98, for that matter. ('99+ IRS cars obviously will not, though the newer years with a solid axle will still fit)
'84 Mustang
'98 Explorer 5.0
'03 Focus, dropped a valve seat. yay. freakin' split port engines...
'06 Explorer EB 4.6

I took the car out and pushed it hard at some bends, and while the front stayed remarkably flat, and my corner speed was greatly increased, I could feel the rear trying to steer the car and I don't like it.  I ordered the rear bar this afternoon.

Mount length and link length are the same.


You might check that info. As far as I remember, the end links on the TBirds/Cougars were shorter. 4"-ish  vs. 5"-ish (I don't have the info in front of me, and it's been a number of years since I replaced them on any of my TBirds/Cougars)

The kit came with two sets of links. I matched up the short ones with what I had on the car, so I used them instead of the longer ones.

At least they included the proper ones. The loner ones would be for Mustangs.
