My car is a 1991 Lincoln Mark VII LSC. The front and rear suspension is completely out. I know there are several things that could be wrong with it. I kind of just want to change out the whole suspension on both sides.How would I do that? Or where could I look to figure it out?
I would have thought that copper wire was too soft to use for making bezels for stone setting - are you hammering it flat or using it for hooks?
Usually the air ride suspensions go out because a hole in one of the airbags. It keeps the compressor running non stop and it then burns the compressor up. You have two options. You can replace the factory equipment which is very expensive or you can convert it over to the more dependable conventional system. Most parts stores can get you a conversion kit.
The rear suspension is not difficult to replace with new or even used air bags and solenoids. It is a good idea to replace the air lines, but before doing any of that make sure the compressor/pump is working. If you want to rid the car of the air ride suspension there are kits on the market or you can use the struts for a Mercury Cougar ont he front and a set of special coil springs on the rear. The springs are usually available are specialty parts stores. There is a savings over buying the kits whole. Best of luck!
Hummm, most comon Lincoln question lol. Change the suspension over to a standard shock system, it will be a lot cheaper than repairing or replacing the troublesome air suspension.
