Rear Shocks for Lincoln Mark VIII

[jkastell]

I was wondering if anybody has tried the rear shocks from Arnott. I need to change the shock mounts in my 98 and it has 85,000 miles on it with original shocks. It is almost the same price to buy their shocks with the mounts as buying the mounts alone from the dealer.

Nope........ Just bought mine from the dealer at 74,000 changed, upper bad mounts

Sorry guys, I don't carry the rear shocks for the Mark just yet. I would recommend getting Monroe Sensatracs for a '92-'96 T-Bird and getting the solid shock mounts from Eric Neasham (neasham_e@hotmail.com). He is getting them made from a machine shop with a water-jet machine. Sweet setup and I think they are $35 "A PAIR" shipped to you.....rather than $35 "EACH" + shipping from the dealer!

Best yet, these are solid, which means they shouldn't need replacing again. The new Ford mounts WILL need replacing again one day.

I knew about using the T-bird shocks which I did for my 93 but not the mounts.. I need to remember this when I need to replace them for my 95 Mark..

You the Bomb Eddie...

The rear shock mount is such an EZ fix it not funny. Cut out the rubber from the mounts!
Use the rubber that comes with the T-bird shocks!

I used a digrinder to cut the old crapy rubber out.

EZ Cut out Old rubber from the Mounts , Don't look back! never have to worry about it again! Dont pay for the basicly the same mount with out the rubber!
