    For Sale 98 Mark VIII LSC 5 speed swap

    I rode in this when I was at Jeremi's for a meet. I wish I was in the position to buy it because it is PERFECT. Everything I ever wanted to do to mine is done to this one. Whoever buys it will NOT be disappointed.

    Pretty sure I found my Mark VIII front end clunk

    I would just replace the entire LCA instead of press in new balljoints. At least for me, it was nearly the same price to replace the entire arm as it was to replace just the balljoint. Plus, the inner bushing is probably worn a decent amount if the LCA has never been replaced.

    My Mark VIII - Update Inside

    Agreed. These are probably 250 lb/in higher than the springs I have now. They're about 150 lb/in higher than the ST springs that are 1.5" taller. I think it'll be okay.

    My Mark VIII - Update Inside

    Free length was about 1.5" shorter than the shortest aftermarket spring (Spring Tech 14.33"). These are 12.75" free length. I bet I'll probably need spacers, but maybe not. I don't mind if the car sits really low as long as I can get it aligned correctly and have room for a wide tire up front.

    My Mark VIII - Update Inside

    So I was trying to find a better spring replacement, as I don't care about ride quality. There aren't many options, as we all know. Eibach and Vogtlands are really the only aftermarket options that I know of that are still produced. You can find Tokicos, Spring Tech, and others out there, but...

    Picking up a set of stock, used 03-04 Cobra IRS spring (set of 4). We'll see if I can make them work and answer the age old question of "they should work".

    03-04 Cobra IRS Springs for Mark VIII

    I felt like I was going to have to do that for some Koni Sport Shocks, but found a set and didn't have to S a D.

    03-04 Cobra IRS Springs for Mark VIII

    I have looked at the Vogtlands. I was hoping to find a linear springs as progressive springs don't really help a lot for what I'm doing. The 03-04 Cobra has plenty of options, if only they fit. I have a spare set of front shocks, maybe I can buy a cheap set of Cobra springs and see if it...

    03-04 Cobra IRS Springs for Mark VIII

    So I'm starting to do more and more looking to get my Mark VIII more prepared for Autocross. Most all of the Thunderbird springs have been discontinued or are just crap in general. I know the IRS in the 03-04 Cobra was similar to our cars, but what I'm really wondering are if the springs...

    For Sale 1998 Lincoln Mark VIII LSC Medium Charcoal Green Clean

    Man, I wish I could get rid of mine for this one. Or pick this one up, too. It's almost dark highland green and could be turned into a psuedo-Bullitt Mark.

    My Mark VIII - Update Inside

    I should have some pictures up soon of the Autocross event this last Sunday. It was a riot and the "crowd" really enjoyed the Mark VIII. I did okay, placing 3rd out of 4th. Beat a Fox-body that was much more setup than the Mark, so I'll take that. On the last two runs, I developed a high-RPM...

    My Mark VIII - Update Inside

    It will get painted some day. I'll try wet sanding it before that day comes, though. I'm thinking my heat issue is a bubble in the heater core. I burped it with the heat on, but must've missed some. The wheels will be on by this weekend. I'm waiting on tires for the front. Hopefully, I'll be...

    Rear Upper Spring perch?

    The ones in this thread look much better than what Arnott, AAS, or Strutmasters sells (or don't include all together). I bought the lower perches that SCP sells and will use the uppers that come with the spring conversion.
