What comes in the kit?

The front control arm bushings are not the same.  Neither are the swaybar endlinks.  The stock Tbird strut mount bushings are not replaceable.

It's also pretty hard to install a rear sway bar incorrectly, they only fit in the control arms one way.

If you've got all Mustang suspension, I'd say it's a pretty safe bet Mustang bushings & stuff would work :D Like Chuck said, the stock T-Bird strut mounts don't have replaceable bushings (unless the strut mounts have been replaced with aftermarket ones at some point), and the T-Bird sway bar end links are different (longer) than Mustang links.
