RE: Need help picking out shocks
I'm not too familiar with the town car, but if yours are worn, replacement OEM shocks will take out some of the boat feel.
I would personally see if i could get some bilstiens on there. The ones i put on the back of my navigator help a lot, but it's a little different application. They do definitely firm up the ride, though.

All 4 is the way to go.
I'm not sure whether bilstiens will be available for your car or not. They probably will for the rear, but if the front has air struts you may be stuck with OEM replacements. If that's the case you're probably better off going OEM on the rears too.
On my truck i can't get the bilstiens for the front because they're part of the air ride. I put bilstiens in the back anyway, though, to control the ride motion better when towing.
