Help Needed: 67 rear springs on a 66?

  • Does anyone know if 67 rear springs also fit a 66? I recently bought new 66 rear springs from a major parts house, I went to install them and noticed they have 67 P/N. Before I wrestle with them I want to know it they are compatible.


    thanks

  • The last available Ford generic replacement spring for the 65 and 66 Mustangs was a C7ZZ 5560 M. That is probably the part number that you see painted on the spring. It will work but is not really correct.

  • My 66 fastback has C7ZA 5556AR springs so I would think they would work ok. I would be interested in trading for a set of 66 fastback springs if anyone has a set.
