I just wanted to thank all you folks at strutmasters. My kit arrived yesterday and just had it installed and what a difference. When the Lincoln dealer told me that it was going to cost me $1550 to have the compressor and airbags replaced I nearly fainted. Your product delivered everything it promissed. The totoal cost to me was $503 that includes the kit, having it installed and an alignment That is one third of what I was goning to have to spend at the Lincoln dealer and now I don't have to worry about my rear air suspension again. Thank you guys again and feel free to use my testimony to anyone who is considering having this done.

"Fixed" car myself with your product

The Lincoln dealer put new airbags on the used car I bought (at their expense) and said that was all it needed. The rear end still seemed lower than normal and I was afraid it would hit coming out of my driveway. They said not to worry, "it's level" but could be raised. When I went back to have it raised, after waiting 2 hours, they told me that they couldn't raise it because the compressor was too weak. They gave me a bill for $700 and said that they could fix it that day. I handed the bill back to them and told them, no deal. Originally, I was going to order a new compressor on your website. I started reading about the conversion kit and all the reviews on yours and other sites as well. I talked to a local mechanic and he recommended the conversion rather than a new compressor. I never want to have to fool with this suspension again, so I hope this is the permanent fix.
The dealer took advantage of me in the original sale of the car and figured they could continue to get paid by "fixing" it. I plan on taking the car back there to show them that I "fixed" it myself. Kathy

More than Pleased

In response to your email inquiry, I am more than pleased with the reat strut conversion kit I ordered from Strutmasters. I learned about you from a friend who also has a Lincoln that had air bag problems. He told me that when (He didn't say "if") I had an air bag problem he would help me install your conversion kit. Well, in July the thing just sat down and would not get up. I remembered his comment about Strutmasters so I looked you up on the internet and found the correct package I needed. I then watched the video and thought, "It can't be that simple.." So I called and talked with Jason. It was as if he had been waiting for my call. He was quite familiar with what I was describing and made the whole ordering process a snap. When the package arrived I called my friend and told him the conversion kit was in. He suggested that I look at my thermometer because it was 108 outside and no garage to work in. I agreed, but a couple of days later I decided to see just how hard it was, so I got out the jack and jack stands and raised it up by the frame. So far so good. Like in the video I was able get the sliding lock off and then pulled the air hose away from the connector. When I loosened the bottom the bag came right out. The rest of it was pretty straight forward. The only problem occurred when I lost the nut from the top of the shock and had to go th the hardware store for another. (Fine threaded - 29 cents) It was a good thing I got the kit with the shocks because one of them had about as much resistance as an accordian. My Lincoln towncar now rides great. I have told a couple of people about it and I am sure they are just as suspicious as I was that the job was so easy. I will continue to tell anyone who has a car with airbags about Strutmasters. Thanks for a great and reasonally priced solution to my problem. Your services rep, Jason, was a pleasure to deal with. Best wishes from a former 'low-rider' in Ada, Oklahoma.
