Re: Stabilizer Bar Links, Horizontal Critical.
Based on nascardave’s comment. I went out and measured the oversized front bar on my Thunderbird. The links are vertical, and the cl of the link to the cl of the bar is 11 inches.
So I think he’s on the right track. The brackets on the lower a arm look the same as yours, so the difference is probably the front mounting position. IIRC, there were some other odd things wagons, trucks, police specials, and sometimes birds shared with the merc’s, like the Dana 44 (or 45 ) series. Ford was big on dipping into the parts bin.
(The original shift knob on my 55 manual trans sure looks the same as a Ford Tractor knob)
