Thinking of selling my jeep wrangler and getting a old Mark as a DD. Any one here have experiance with these cars like with the air suspension or the boat load of electronics on them. I love the way these cars look and sound and have a ton of stuff to put on a stock 5.0 exhaust cai, exploder intake it would be sweet. just wondering what you guys think thanks

ya all the marks have air ride only found that out by looking at one. And i have seen the conversion kits but not really sure how the springs stay in there dosent look like there is a pocket for the spring to sit in on the lower control arm. I think it would be nice to have to 5.0 sound as a daily driver i miss the sound of my mustang so much in the winter. It would be sweet music to be able to hear one all year and every day lol

I've never installed one of the spring conversion kits, but we sell a lot of them where I work. They must work somehow because they never come back. I sell both the brands that I posted links to.

I had an 88 Mark, was my daily driver with the air system. Only gutted the stock H and placed some Flowmasters on it, sounded sweet. Oh also used some 5 spoke 99 GT wheels looked very nice, and got lots of compliments. Something different not to many of those cars around here.
