    i still have the car... I've just never had such a stubborn car and lost my patience with it. Current the right rear shock blew out so that also needs replacing. i dont know if to go with KYB or the NAAKE kit, but first top mounts are completely seized on the old set and need to get those off.

    What does it cost to replace the factory air bags once they fail? Is there a thread on site? Read where the 'In-Tech' motors have a good rep. Had a neighbor at one time long ago who had a FWD Continental - one or more airbags went out and he replaced them with a coil spring setup as I remember. Was a great guy with a first class wife and family. Things started going downhill after he was arrested for discharging his handgun at people trying to break into the Continental during the early hours. Didn't hit them but did get their getaway car. Turned out to be acquaintances of his daughter's boyfriend. Pathetic.

    factory air springs are over $300 each as long as they are avail. Aftermarket sources Arnott, and Suncore are much cheaper.

    What all is kaput with your car? I see references to a possible dead cylinder, timing chain noise and a collapsed rear air spring.....
