I recently put in a new tranny in my 98LSC, it came from a 2002 Mustang with 38K miles on it. It's been OK for about a month, except for a loud clanking\ratcheting noise that would appear and disappear occasionally if I was driving it for more than 30 minutes. A few days ago, it started...

So it looks like I'll be shopping for a used junkyard tranny for my 98 LSC. What would be the best donor to look for? Wikipedia suggests my choices are: 1993–1998 Lincoln Mark VIII 1993–2003 Ford F-Series 1994–1997 Ford Thunderbird 1995–1998 Lincoln Mark VIII 1995–2004 Ford Crown...

Hey guys, I have a 98 LSC with almost 150K miles on the original transmission, and it developed some major problems. I can shift it into reverse, and it shifts nice and strong and drives fine. However, when I shift into D, it just acts like nothing happened (except the RPMs go down just a...

Hey guys, I have this loud annoying squeak\chirp coming from somewhere in the engine\belt area. It only starts happening when I drive the car for a few miles and it warms all the way up. For the first few miles after I start it it's nice and quiet. It doesn't happen when I'm just sitting at...

I've been told that I need to have my rear wheel bearings replaced (possibly due to me smashing one of the rear wheels into a curb a couple of years ago). I've done the fronts myself, and it wasn't too bad of a job, since it's just one sealed hub unit. What about the rears, though? It looks...

Hey guys, I want to get the front end rebuilt on my 98 LSC to get rid of some clunking noises etc., and get an alignment afterwards. I would attempt to do this myself, but I will be driving the Mark from MD to CA next week, so I need to have this done soon, and reliable. The new parts (MOOG) I...

Hey all, sorry for the long post. My blower motor in my 98 quit on me a few days ago. Doesn't even spin up, no air coming out at all. The EATC unit looks to be functioning fine. I ran the self-test, and it didn't throw any codes at me. It's starting to get really hot and humid here, so I need...

I have a bulb that I bought to replace a burnt out one, in January of 2006. I used it up to about December, 2006. It worked perfectly in this period of time, and was even brighter than the old bulb on the other side. I no longer need it. If you're looking for a replacement, this would be the one...

Just stumbled across a post on another Mark VIII forum about the D2S adapters possilby being produced for our cars. The pricing isn't too bad, especially if there will be more than 10 buyers. $190 for a pair of them is less than you would pay for just one HID bulb from Ford, and who knows if...

Anybody have one, new or used?

Apparently, the HID bulbs for the Gen 2 headlights are on a national backorder, till November\December. One of my bulbs went out a few days ago. So now it seems like I'm going to have to drive it at night with only one headlight until winter. Are there any other feasible options for bulbs out there?

Well, my air ride compressor finally died, after making lots of strange noises for the last few weeks. I turned the air suspension switch off in the trunk, and it hasn't gone down much in the last week. I also have a spider valve, so I can pump it up in case it does sag. I am looking for a new...

Hey guys, I was just under the hood cleaning up the engine a little bit, and stumbled upon something that looks kinda broken. I snapped a few pics with my phone, sorry for the crappy quality.. I can hold the hose to the hole with my finger, but it doesn't stay there unless i hold it...

Hey guys. Now that I got my new 19" wheels I need some bigger brakes, for the wheels are pretty damn heavy. What options are available out there? So far i found these: https://www.kvrperformance.com/order/Search_Display.cfm?ID=1836 http://www.diskbrakesrus.com/make/lincoln/mark.htm...
