What did you do to your Mark VIII today?

[Lownslowlsc]

i took my 93 in for the recall when the letters went out.
a few months later, i found all original wiring and a leaking break pressure switch.
the dealer didn't do ****. screw those guys.

It's been a while, but I recall a year or two that had the "Fix" done @ or around the master cyl.

the 93's cruise switch is located somewhere below the master cylinder in a hard to reach spot, is that what you mean?

Think I misunderstood your original post. I thought you were looking in the wrong place (Wheel well).

The link is supposed to take you to a page where you enter your vin # to find out whether or not your car was ever brought in for the recall fix. No videos involved what so ever.

Thinking about buying a couple of thesefrom Amazon.com for the '95. They're only $6 for the time being. But the angle looks a little wierd. Will these fit the Mark VIII? The fitment chart says they will fit 89-92 T-Bird and Cougar. I didn't think the suspension changed all that much from 89-97.

I thought they were a little different cause of the 5.0

Those look like pretty decent upper control arms. I say do it.

Ah! I completely forgot about it having the good ol' 302 back then! So these probably won't fit my '95? Sucks.

It would've been the perfect project car for Matte 8 Lover.
