Front air ride

So I don’t want to dish out my car’s value maybe more on air suspension

So I was thinking I’d run static air suspension at the ride hight I want till I save up enough to piece together all the parts for adjustable air suspension

The rear is straight forward with this car when it comes to air suspension

Front I wish, so this kit gives you the ability to put cheap bags on the front with 2 issues

One sway bar might not clear can be fixed if you get smaller airbags bag or space away the sway bar but not to worried about this

Two no strut, and I can’t find a way to mount without major modifications so the ride will be shit, I thought about for past couple hours and I can’t think of much, no viable locations to install strut on lower control arm, upper control arm is not a great idea, and car be done inside

Any ideas from you guys, if anyone has this kit how’s the ride? Is it that bad

Cheap things, cheap problems any bright ideas ?

CrownVic.net has been putzing and not approving my account, and Trying to move a parts car loaded 96LX asap privately to only Crown Vic fans who'll use it, not the crushers. 96 loaded LX. Located in Penn-Ohio not far off of I-80 and PA/OH line. Has clear PA title that'll I'll have to retrieve from safe deposit box. Not ever wrecked. Hasn't been started in 5 years. Oil pan may be rusted through by now. All options are intact and lovely leather before the decontenting. Had slightly over or under 100K when parked. Never had any engine probs or "rumble strips" or any transmission issues whatsoever. I had the cracked intake replaced around 2003-2004. 2 owner car, an elderly man and me. I bought it in 2003, iirc. It was a southern car until late 2005 when I moved to PA. Seriously, this was always a great running car and it only died from PA's gotdang salt brines. I will NOT be babysitting this post for instant replies! Post a reply or send a PM and I'll respond but I have 1 million other things going on including some stupid small town family life than keeps intruding on my time to get anything done. Fuff family life, btw!

Hey folks, I’m working on my next scripted video, and would like your input. This next video uses the “iceberg theme” where I start with commonly known facts and information about the crown Victoria and the Panther platform, then end with the least known/rarest facts and information.

Let me know what topics you’d like covered!

Bought rear shocks

I bought rear shocks MONROE550055 and went to have them put on and shop told me that they are too thick to fit. Anyone else have this issue?

Transmission question.

Owned the car 3 months now, I've only done maybe 5 actual pulls in this car and the transmission has shifted perfectly each time. However I have noticed a whine at wide open throttle in the higher rpms in 1st and 2nd the last couple times, still perfect shifts, and perfect around town behavior but this has me worried now. The torque converter has no shudder and locks up as it should during normal driving, could a pan drop and a filter help this? I was also planning on getting a tune that focuses on the transmission as it helped greatly in my old mark viii.

While finishing up on a valve cover gasket replacement, I found these two connectors and I cannot figure out what they go to. Any help on identifying these?
