A spring absorbs energy by increasing tension when distorted and returning the energy as the tension is released. Most metal springs store energy by twisting a metal bar. The bar may be a tiny wire or a foot thick piece of metal. A coil spring is just the bar set into a coil.

You will need to remove the panel liners inside both sides of the trunk. This will give you access to the top nut of each rear strut. You will need to remove the existing struts to place the new coil springs over the struts. You may need two jacks, one ot jack the car up and one to use to compress the coil spring you are installing. This takes about 1 and a half hours for both rear coil springs. I bolt on the bottom of the sturt and the nut inside the trunk is all you need to remove to get the struts off and replace the coil springs. Make sure you check the quality of the strut mount bushings (rubber gaskets) before you re-install. They re only about $10 a piece from the dealrer and worth the price if you are going to this much work.
Lincoln Town Cars are built on the same platform as the Ford Crown Victoria (the Panther Platform). To convert your Lincoln from air springs to coil springs, simply replace the Lincoln air aprings with the coil springs for a Ford Crown Victoria. (Depending on the ride you want, you can choose to either install the standard coil springs from a civilian-equiped Crown Victoria or you can install the coil springs used on the Police Interceptor version of the Crown Vic.) In addition to the coil springs, you will also need to purchase the rubber insulators to install between the car's frame and the coil spring. Simply remove your Lincoln's air spring system and install the new rubber insulators and coil springs. Many websites have detailed instructions and most "shade tree" mechanics can do the job themselves. The cost of the parts should cost no more than $125.00.
