I have a 1992 that desperately needs new shocks, but it's a looker and may get entered in a competition or two. I'd like to get replacements that are as similar as possible to the OEM shocks it came with but are no longer available.
My first question is, does anyone know who was making the shocks for Ford in 1992? I think they are labeled with Ford part numbers, but I'm sure they had someone else making them for them.
My second question is, what's the closest I can get today? I think the answer is this Gabriel set (https://lmr.com/item/GRC-G55551BK/gabriel-mustang-shock-strut-kit-w-quad-shocks-84-93-5-0-svo), the upper horizontal shocks have the same taper design the stock ones do. I don't see any other shocks with this taper, leaving me to think maybe Gabriel was making the OEM's in 1992?
