    Recommended Suspension Bushings for MN12's and FN10's

    I need to do the same thing. The car is very squirrely over bumps. That's why I'd like to get a set of Delrin bushings.

    Delrin Bushings lower control arm and knuckle

    Cool. I'm definitely going to be looking into it. I'm getting my Mark VIII back on air suspension in the next month or so and I'm planning to do a complete front and rear suspension rebuild at the same time.

    About air susp conversion

    Mine had a coil-over conversion when I got it. I hate it. I'm getting back on air next month. Can't wait!!!!

    sorry to kick a dead horse about the rear neon...

    Convert it to LED. Much less trouble and will last much longer.

    What did you do to your Mark VIII today?

    Still steady modding my '96. I just got some more blue LED and EL lighting done on the console and dash. The problem I'm encountering is that I'm trying to replace the OEM T4 Neo-wedge bulbs in the EATC with blue LED's. The LED's I got are plug-n-play. But after installation, they don't work at...

    My Problem........LEDs

    I'm having a similar issue with my '96 after installing LED brake and front turn signal lights. I installed a digital flasher unit that cured the fast flashing problem. However, if the headlights are off, the front turn signals work properly, but the rears both flash at the same time. And with...

    What did you do to your Mark VIII today?

    Okay. Another question. The T-Bird has been sitting for a couple of weeks since it won't shift out of 2nd gear. I haven't had the time to do anything to it yet. But I have ordered new 1-2 and 2-3 shift accumulator upgrade kits. I know the 1-2 accumulator was in need of the upgrade because it...

    What did you do to your Mark VIII today?

    Man, I love those LED trunk lights :) And on a side note, not Mark related, but I finally got the Exploder back on the road. Put a "new" salvage yard transmission in and it shifts better than the one that was in it when I got it. So now I just need new front brake calipers (drivers side is...

    Thundermark

    That's impressive. But why roll-up windows? And why did they do away with the original EATC for a manual control panel?

    Winter, what a great time to referbish my wheels.

    I'd like to paint my 10-spokes that color and put them on my T-Bird. Did you use a spray can? And what type/color/code was it?

    Mark viii led light help!!!!

    When I swapped in the LED trunk and tail lights on the '96, it worked fine without any other modifications. However, when I did the same thing to the '95 and '97 I had to install the digital flasher to stop the "hyperflashing" problem. Other than that, never had any issues except the "Check...

    Would you buy another Mark viii?

    Yes. The orientation of the engine and which wheels are driven does indeed make the earth spin backwards and absolutely immediately precludes it from even being a possibility for consideration. At least in my opinion. Your mileage may vary. I, personally, have never owned a wrong-wheel-drive...
