    The guy on ebay that sells d/s mirrors for cheap

    There's a guy on ebay that sells just a standard mirror cut to fit the driver side of a Gen II Mark VIII. It's not electrochromatic, but after having one leak out, I'd rather have a normal mirror anyway. They've served me just fine in all my other cars...

    CD Head Unit Options for Mark VIII and Ford Expedition?

    So my boss asked me today if I knew of a good setup for his wife's Expedition. S/he wants a nice changer setup, six discs would probably work. In-dash would be really cool, but other options will be examined. The uber-cheapest setup is not necessary - he is a Senior Audit Manager and can...

    So, my door handle broke...

    Yep, my outside door handle on my Gen II Lincoln just broke. First, let me say this is a HUGE PAIN IN THE A$$ to get out. Honestly, if it wasn't broken in the first place, I don't even know how I would have gotten it out. I tried to have my fabricator weld it back together - we pretty...

    Another questions about changing MAF in a MarkVIII

    I keep hearing that people are changing their MAF sensors in their Lincolns as a way to make more power... Is there a reason for this? Is the stock MAF inadequate to supply enough air to a naturally aspirated 4V 4.6? I know from my Mustang experience that a naturally aspirated 2V 4.6...

    Most Common 98 Headlight Failure Problem?

    I've got a quick question. The passenger side headlight in my 98 went out, and I'm wondering what the most likely culprit is - the bulb, or the ballast? I see lots of sponsors and such down the side of the page - where do most of you spend your money? I live in Phoenix, so Five Star would...
