l think it would be cost prohibitive.

it depends on the type of setup you have since you didn''t say what type of Lincoln you have some have shocks and air bags some have struts with air bags attached. In any case any and all types of setups can be converted there are kits to convert or find similar Ford or Mercury product and change it over that way.

Yes -it is actually very cheap, considering the cost of upkeep on the air ride. Google ''lincoln air springs'' and you will see.

Yes, you can buy the kit on eBay. The shock hangers and the hole for the top bolt are already on the frame so it is possible. My 94 Town car was switched out before l bought it, but last year l did put new heavy duty gas shocks on it so it sits up a little higher than normal and does not drag thru the road dips anymore. It rides a little rougher than the air ride, but no more air leaks from an air suspension.
