    I would suggest buying a Mustang kit, and that will save you money than buying every piece separatly. The Mustang and Maverick front suspensions are the same. Get a 67-73 Mustang kit - any year, it doesn't matter. I got a 72 Mustang kit when I did mine.

    Performance Suspension Technology (PST) has a couple of options on total rebuild kits (A-Arms included).

    I agree with what's already been said and would just like to add that someone recommended C.J. Pony Parts and I ordered some stuff from them with very satisfactory results. They have the best prices I have been able to find anywhere on Mustang (Maverick) suspension parts...
