Mondeo Cougar Rear Swaybay

[professorsabre]

I posted this on whiteline's forum but have not been able to confirm...

Wondering if anyone can help, I want to purchase the HB-HC 2000 Mondeo rear swaybar and put it on my Cougar. I was trying to find out what size orig bar is from Ford and they couldn't tell me. I asked them if it was the Mondeo and Cougar bar were the same and they couldn't tell me. I searched a US online part listing and they list the same part number for both.

i.e.
F7RZ 5A772 CA For 2001 Cougar
F7RZ-5A772-CA For Contour (US Mondeo)

Am I safe to say that both bars are the same and I will be able to use the BFR57 swaybar?

Appreciate your assistance.

If anyone has done this or knows it would be a great help.

Cheers
