coil conversion?

Love my springs, been on a month or two now,if you do the springs get the 1.5" drop for the front, but go with the original height springs for the back, the car will sit level then...

I disagree, respecfully. Mine sag'd after a year and I had to buy fronts again. If anything, it'd be the opposite.

Well, I hope my front sag, because it is way too high for me...

Eddie's preferred leak test is to get it pumped up.Then turn it off. Then drive arround for a few days and see which side , if any, goes down. Then investigate from their.

after buying a set of aftermarket bags that lasted 1 month after warentee period(NOT the brand mentioned here) they told me sorry times up. I converted to thunderbird super coupe springs(made by eibach) never looked back!!! my car will out handle any stock bagged lincoln!! while the ride on rough surfaces is worse(may be a deciding factor the way our roads are now!!) my brother opted for the factory bags when his died(way expensive!!!) he drives about as well as I do yet I can get almost 2 car lengths through the same set of turns! I guess it depends on what you want your mkviii to do. for good handling and overall ride I would go with factory bags. for handling I would go with eibach. I won't recomend a aftermarket(bag) company due to the wasted money I spent for a years use!!!! p.s.the supercoupe springs give my mark a nice rake also!!
