Sure do, anything that works on a Mustang with the same motor and a automatic. Rearends the same, motors were the same, trannies were the same.

I know anything else gets better mpg than a bronco, but how much better is a T-bird's milage. I had a friend with a '91 and '92 V8 that never got over 20. Interesting fact: I recently bought a Mercury Tracer badge over a Ford Escort, to drive while I fixed my Bronco. I decided to keep it after the repairs b/c even with as little driving as I do, the escort will pay for itself in under two years just from the $ I save from buying gas for the Bronc.

Go through the main page at tccoa.com like jimbeamalki said.

www.sccoa.com caters mainly to the Super Coupes, but they are both great sites.

Don't get fooled in to thinking they were exactly the same as the Mustangs. The motor and transmission offerings WERE different during different years and a lot of pieces from one won't work on the other.

IMHO the '89-'97s are great cars.
