Whats up with the t-bird shocks? I bought a set for a 94 t-bird like was said on LVC, The top bushing that came with them would not work! It didn't come with two rubber bushings per shock, but rather only one cone shaped thing!:mad: I had them check other shocks and it was the same! Well I had a new set of shocks laying around that had the correct bushings on them so they worked fine. I also bought the new solid top mounts off of ebay, they worked great and look good too. No more clunking in the rear now:D

You dont USE that bushing! You use the T-Bird shocks, thats it. You still need Mark VIII bushings.

I used the bushings that came with the T Bird shocks. Monroe Sensatracs for a 96 tbird with the 4.6. Everything went together as smooth as a strippers ass.

I see, Well I used the new t-bird shocks with the other bushings that I had in the garage. I did not reuse the factory mount though, I bought the new solid mounts just for the t-bird shocks. They were $35 bucks on ebay.

Thanks.
