    Replacing front air springs on a 96 Lincoln Continental?

    Thanks for the really useful videos, which I had not seen before. Clearly shows the whole front suspension unit, and its removal, to replace with strutmaster unit. There will be further dissasembly in case of replacing the airs spring part on the shock. If anyone attempts this job, the three...

    Replacing front air springs on a 96 Lincoln Continental?

    The company I bought these air springs from promptly sent me a replacement, via Fedex from Guangdong China to UK. Shipped Saturday, arrived Wednesday.

    Replacing front air springs on a 96 Lincoln Continental?

    The Lincoln has been off the road for some months I have now sourced 2x 3U2Z5310CA, yes from China. However packaging was poor and one arrived with one of the plastic locating tabs broken off. I cant see these plaing a major part in keeping the airs spring in place, being so weak? Will this...

    URGENT: Just started college, battery is dead every morning

    I have the same problem with my 1996 Lincoln Continental here in the UK. When you pull the fuses, bridge each fuse holder with an ampmeter or multi meter set at amps, this will give you the exact drain at each fuse. It could be a number of fuses? You can then identify circuits to test from the...

    Thank you Svets I would be interested to know of any Lincoln owners of the same model in the UK. The only Lincolns I see here are on ebay, and those are rare and Town Car Limos. Am I the only one in the UK with a 1995-2002 model Conti?

    Hi I am a new member, from Newark Nottinghamshire, UK. I purchased my 1996 Lincoln Continental 2 years ago from here in the UK. It had been exported to Belgium from new. Have done lots of work, mostly on brakes and tie bar replacement. And still work to do. I will have questions for the...
