I just had my 98 conti in the shop for a thumping sound in rear, sounded like something was banging around in the trunk. Well it turned out to be rear sway bar link. The shop said to replace both sides since the new one would probably cause strain on the old and it would break. Installed both...

Thanks for the help, I'll try to get to it this weekend. Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas all! My rear brake light bulb went out on my 98 conti, after looking at it, it appears the rear assembly has to be removed to replace is that correct? It seems like alot to change a bulb, just checking to make sure I'm correct, I'm not the most mechanically inclined and didn't...

Thanks for the info, I have a set of shop manuals that I got on ebay. I'll give it a whirl and see how long it lasts. I'm with you if I can get a year at a time out of it, that works for me, especially on an eleven year old car.

Looks great, you did a very nice job. What's next?

Thanks guy there's alot of information here to read. I'm hoping I can get 5-6 years out of this car till the kids are out of college. They're already fighting over who gets it when the wifes done with it! It certainly is a fun car to get to know:D

Hi all, Just found this thread and it seems like a terrific source of information. I just bought my wife a Pearl white, 98 Continental with all the bells and whistles, and garage kept. Driven by older women who passed away, only has 27k miles on it, I don't think the back seat was ever sat...
