I have had to replace the front airbags.
The rear airbags leak, but the pump brings them to the proper height on startup and maintains the proper height while driving so I have never fixed them.
All other problems I have had are due to poor maintenance and weather.
I bought this car as an everyday driving vehicle. I did not treat it well at all. I rarely changed the oil. I was so impressed by it's durability, that I recently purchased another for restoration. I love this car. It has never left me stranded.
I have noticed you have said your air suspension bags were leaking. It is only a matter of time the pump will burn out because it is constantly running.
It's better to have springs cause the car drives just as smooth! I replaced my bags with a 91' Thunderbird, and it drives like the air bags are still in it! My Mark VII sits high in the back and it looks great with the dragster look!
I'm trying to rebuild a 1990 lincoln mark vii and I was wondering if the engines are the same as the 5.0L in the mustangs. or if any other parts are compatable.
Yes the engine is the same as the mustang. infact a lot of parts are interchangeable, me and my friends did a conversion on a stang to an lsc the only major issues were the air ride (which we didn't even bother) and the center console wouldn't bolt up right.
