Maybe your springs are starting to sag or you want to replace the factory air ride suspension with regular springs? Fortunately its an easy upgrade. Any late model Crown Victoria spring is a direct replacement. I chose to use brand new police interceptor springs to firm up the rear end of my Crown Vic and also replaced the shocks why I was at it due to a blown drivers side shock. The shocks on the 92-02 cars are much harder to replace than the springs, but I will show you a tip on how to get the old ones off. With a little patience you can easily complete this project yourself and save a bunch of money.

Can confirm. I've just completed this upgrade on my 95 crown Vic. It works great! Light trailer towing, heavy groceries or extra passengers are no longer a problem. Thanks for the recommendation! Great vid!

Hey I know its been a couple years but I was wondering couldn't you just stick a wrench on the top nut and then spin the upper casing of the shock from below maybe even by hand? I mean the stud is attached to that top outer shell portion of the shock right? I know you couldn't spin the shock from the bottom but isn't the whole top half one piece?

I have a 2000 Lincoln Town car, with the springs in the rear brginning to sag. Do you have any idea if the springs from the 2003 Crown Victoria Police Interceptor would be compatible with my vehicle? I am hoping that they may be compatible, because I was planning to have the coils replaced soon, and this would be a nice upgrade.

The springs are but the shocks are not. In 2006, they completely redesigned the suspension front and rear. Outboard shocks and a much better ride.
