Default Cost of parts for AU's?

I was wondering how much parts cost for an AU in comparison to the e-series. by parts i mean things like balljoints, bushes, wheelbearings,brakepads,powersteering lines, radiators etc things that tend wear out in the high kms, what would be some rough estimates of prices for these sort of parts. the reason i ask this is i might be buying an extaxi AU e for a cheap cruser, but i want to fix it up a little and make it a nice car. any replies are appreciated.

Drop FTG Salvage a PM, they are the local Ford parts specalists and can give you exact prices. I would guess that the prices are now very similar to E Series parts for a lot of it now though.
