    Default Replacement part compatability 85 GT

    Looks like we are going to have some decent weather this weekend, so im wanting to hit the junkyard for some parts.
    Im not 100% sure, and its been a while and I didnt get enough info from the previous owner, but i think my car might have been a roller when he got it. So I dont really know what year the motor is under the hood. I need to replace the power steering pump and the windshield wiper motor. Are these parts compatible with other year fox bodies? If so which ones?
    I dont know enough about the cars, but im thinking that the car has the wrong power steering pump and maybe thats the reason why it leaks. could be wrong, but this whole thing is kind of a mystery.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Not sure about the wiper motor but on my 85 2.3L and 88 5.0 the power steering pump is the same.

    Great thanks. I just had an LMR.com ad come in my email and they list the pumps as the same for all years of foxbodies, so thats a bonus. I thought that maybe some of the newer years (91-93) might have different pressures maybe??

    Just out of curiosity I checked with AZ and the wiper motors are different between my 85 and 88. They list for around $60.
