Default 65 Front Suspension

Does anyone know if the front suspension out of a '65 T-Bird will bolt right in place in a '65 or '66 Mustang? Any help would be appreciated. Trying to decide on my next project.

I have no idea. Get out your trusty tape measure and take some readings.

I would be glad to get out my trusty tape measure if I only had a '65 or '66 Stang.

Thank you Andrewmp6,
I appreciate your reply.You area great benefit to the restoration and preservation of old cars byhelping others when they have a question. Why some would go out of their way to reply (with a smart aleck answer) when they don't know the answer to the questionjust reveals their ownlack of intelligenceand gives them their sign. Reading my first post would reveal that I am considering a Mustang project and I already have the front suspension/disc brakes from a 65 T-Bird and am curious if they will interchange.However, instead of not responding when they couldn't helpand didn'tknow the answer they just have to show how brilliant they are with an answer that will be a benefit to no one.

I am sure someone with a sign will have something to say about this.

Dude chill out. He even admitted he didn't know the answer but with your negligence to provide enough information, he had to assume in order to give you advice. It's the internet. Is there any way you can realize the difference between a statement and a smart aleck answer?

Funny that such a offensive post would come from a newbie directed at one of the longest posting members in this section.

And no I do not know either your question. Just buy a mustang and ditch the t-bird suspension...it's not worth the money to clean it up unless it's immaculate.
