Mark 8 97-98 Does not have Front shocks unless it has been altered from OEM,if this is the case Strut Masters carries the Strict, OE on this car is Air Bags
None but some people use the T-Bird springs and shocks.
Below is a link to the instructions for that installation.
no... the continental front suspension will not fit. i did some research about this for my 93... the suspension from a cougar or a thunderbird will bolt right in
there is a kit available. the last place i saw it was in a jc Whitney catalog. mark 8 is a beautiful car but problems with the air ride stink I have a 93 Lincoln Mark8 and it has thunderbird shocks on it.
Yes they will
if i was to fix suspension by adding shocks, i would use air shocks to compensate for the air ride
not recommended unless you have a lot of money. You need to change front springs and shocks to support the extra weight. Motor mounts, transmission mounts, transmission, driveshaft, rear end, rear springs and shocks to take extra torque, computers need to be changed to program v-8 instead of 4 cylinder, Exhaust and catalytic converter need to be changed.
Go to Strutmasters.com. They offer a conversion kit and it comes with instructions on how to convert from Airbags to springs.
