Spindle question

[toomanytoys]

I took the KYB struts out of my 88LX and tried to put them in my mothers 88 4cyl vert. The mounting tab at the bottom of the strut is not wide enough to fit my mothers car. Her spindles are thicker than mine. I dont get this, I thought all foxbodies were the same underneath???? And I dont see a different part # for a vert.

4 cylinder cars have different spindles.

'79-'86 and 4 cylinder cars use the same spindles. '87+ v8 cars use different spindles and brakes than the others.

Bigger brakes with thinner spindles? That just dont seem right !

Ford never makes sense
