Why Choose Strutmasters
Why Choose Strutmasters
We are proud to be known as The Suspension Experts. This means we know all about the assortment of parts that make up the air suspension system on your 1990-2011 Lincoln Town Car. They are complicated and fail easily. We created a conversion kit that eliminates the dependency on all these complex parts functioning in sync so your suspension remains working. This kit is a direct replacement and includes two high-quality American-Made coil springs to delete the airbags in the rear of your Town Car. The kit saves you time, frustration and a lot of money. No modifiers are needed for the kit to be installed. Also, this is the only kit on the market that includes high-quality American-Made coil springs. Lets take a look at the cost difference between choosing an air suspension replacement vs a non-air suspension system. We will compare three prices: that of air suspension repair at the dealer, that of installing aftermarket air suspension parts on the Town Car, and that of getting rid of the faulty air ride headache and installing a brand new Strutmasters coil spring suspension conversion kit. Our customers tell us the low price of the kit is the main reason they made the "switch."

Replaced Components
The 1990-2011 Lincoln Town Car is built with the following rear suspension components: 1990-2011 Lincoln Town Car Air Springs (x2) - commonly referred to as air bags, a plastic and rubber bag that is fitted on top of the strut that uses pressurized air as a cushion instead of a metal coil spring to hold a vehicle off of the ground and off of its wheels. These are the number one cause of all air suspension leaks. All air springs all go bad at about the same rate. If one is leaking, the others will not be far behind. For a proper repair, all of them need to be replaced at the same time. 1990-2011 Lincoln Town Car Shock Absorbers (x2) - has metal tubing filled with gas-charged hydraulic fluid that is connected to the wheel of a vehicle in order to reduce the effects of vertical travel on a rough surface which controls the bounciness, and therefore comfort, of a vehicle. 1990-2011 Lincoln Town Car Height Sensors (x2) - a linkage located near each wheel of a vehicle with any electronic suspension that, either mechanically or electronically, constantly measures the height of the vehicle, and reports this information back to the control module so that the computer can identify if changes in height need to be adjusted accordingly. The ride height sensor is a moving part, and like all moving parts, they will eventually wear out. 1990-2011 Lincoln Town Car Air Lines- tubes that run from a compressor to the air which carry pressurized air to the air bags in order to adjust the height of the vehicle, respectively. 1990-2011 Lincoln Town Car Solenoids (x2) - usually L-shaped, these plastic components connect the electrical connection and lines of suspension components to the suspension control module on vehicles with active suspension. The solenoid regulates the air pressure for each air spring. Solenoids start to leak as they wear out causing the vehicle to sag or to lean. This will cause the ride height sensor to send a signal to activate the compressor in an attempt to inflate the air suspension and level out the vehicle. This excessive work load will eventually lead to total failure of the compressor. 1990-2011 Lincoln Town Car Compressor Assembly- creates/sends pressurized to active suspension components. When the air suspension starts leaking, the compressor/pump starts working harder to try to keep the system inflated. By the time air suspension leaks down completely, sitting the vehicle on its tires, the compressor will either have failed or be well on its way to full failure. Buying replacement struts and taking the time to install them only to find out the compressor still needs to be replaced can be very frustrating, time-consuming, and expensive. 1990-2011 Lincoln Town Car Dryer- prevents moisture build-up inside of air suspension parts. 1990-2011 Lincoln Town Car Suspension Control Module- a computer which is responsible for the operations of the air suspension system and maintaining the vehicles correct ride height. 1990-2011 Lincoln Town Car O-rings- Although they are the least expensive parts of the air suspension, they are responsible for maintaining the seal where all of the air lines connect. Be sure to replace the O-rings when repairing any air suspension system.
Suspension Failure Signs
It's happened to many of us; you walk outside to get in your 1990-2011 Lincoln Town Car one morning and it looks like it's been “slammed” down to the ground. Or, as often happens when an air suspension is leaking, the rear end may be sagging while the front remains inflated. Sometimes drivers notice their Town Car is leaning from left to right or vice versa. One thing is certain- a sudden noticeable uneven height difference between different sides of the Lincoln Town car indicates a failed or bad suspension. When there is a total failure of air suspension, the Town Car will not be able to meet and maintain its proper ride height. It is a danger on the road and needs to be fixed ASAP. Other signs to look for are an illuminated suspension warning light or message on the instrument cluster. Lastly, check the Town Car's air suspension compressor. If it has stopped working or is running too often (noticeably loud and noisy), then you may be in need of a suspension repair or replacement.
