This is my first posting, so I apologize if I make any errors.
I have a 93 Mark with 143,000 miles and going strong. I purchased it when I was 18, and now being 20 I've had my adventures and had my share leaving some cars in the dust and had my share of being dusted.
Age is starting to show suspension wise on my car. I've replaced the back shocks including the shock mounts.
In the front, I've replaced the tie rods (inner and outer), upper control arms, and the strut rod bushings.
Still though, when the car travels over the road imperfections(i.e. potholes, road work) , the car still likes to travel on its own (aligment was done, steering wheel is crooked and I get a vibration from the steering wheel due the road (it jolts and you feel all the imperfections). Also you hear when you hit em and it causes the CD player to skip at times.. I hate to be blunt, but it sucks esp. when you have somebody in the car... Then the Lincoln dosn't feel like a Lincoln should.
I would appreciate any help that I can get. I plan on keeping this car, it was kept by Ford as a promo and I really love it. It is the first car I purchased and I'll have it paid off by the end of this year. Sometimes I feel like the mechanics see "sucker" on my forehead because they think I don't know anything.
Just in case this helps, the tires have been balanced and rotated, and I had a bent rim and replaced it. They are Toyo V rated P245/50/R16..
Thanks,
Brandon
