'67 390 GT Mustang Convertible - Leaf Springs
« on: April 19, 2012, 12:36:18 PM »
What color markings are on the leaf springs and where are they located on the leaf springs on a '67 Mustang?  Does anyone have a picture?

At the very least you will have to list how the car is optioned . Different leaf springs for different applications.  It would be best to give the plant specifics and completion date at Ford for a most accurate comparison. At least so I have heard ;) .

Best IMHO to supply the engineering number C7ZA-S or something like that, so that we can compare apples to apples since application are not always clear and we don't want to rely (if we can help it in any way) service replacement info since things were often grouped together to reduce inventory needs

As mentioned by Bob, in addition, we would need to know when and where your car was built (might even add it to every one of your posts when you ask questions since , if you don't, we'll be asking again and again ;) - That's why it is listed in the FAQs and suggestions

Not enough ;)  - would be easiest to just have the spring numbers

AC or non-AC?
PS or non-PS?
4 Speed, 3 speed or auto?

While you're at it, I have the same question for a similar car:

Mine is a '67 390 GTA convertible built in Sept. 1966 at the San Jose plant.  Major options are the C6 automatic transmission, power steering, and power brakes (and it originally had the thermactor system as well).

The part number on the springs appears to be C7ZA5556AG (or possibly C7ZA5556AC)...

Thanks & Best Regards!
