hahah, I hadn't looked under 2009 until after I posted and then never corrected it. Thanks. Sill almost 400 for the two of them when my stock ones lasted almost 10 years. And only one needs replaced.

I purchased a set (GT500) from Tasca a couple years ago for ~$200, they have gone up a little, but still a lot cheaper than $400.

And, the listing says GT, not GT500. How do we know these are not just the stock GT ones?

From the Description. It fits the GT but was OE on the GT500.
The ball joint item is the important one.

Has correct part number listed: M-3075-E
From another site, same part number:
"Fits 2005-2009 V6 built on or before 2/26/09 with 18mm ball joint shaft.
Fits 2005-2010 GT built on or before 8/3/09 with 18mm ball joint shaft.
Fits original 2007-2009 GT500."
Someone correct me if I am wrong, but I believe the V6 & GT use the same control arms stock. These work on my car and I have a 2007 V6.

Well my mustang is before 2/26/09, but are they starting there was an option to have something other than an 18mm ball joint shaft, or are they just providing that information?
I guess I could call them later today, but I would like someone here to confirm.
