I have not done it. If your thinking the system that was on the Lincolns, they are very expensive

I believe Air Ride Technologies has an air strut kit with a separate pump and tank similar to a late model Lincoln suspension. Pricey, but I am sure it could be adapted. I have driven in a 96 Lincoln Mark 8 with the stock air strut system, great for ride, like a damn couch, but handling suffers of course. Overall I like the idea, but still prefer Koni/Bilsteins.

There is an aftermarket company that makes bolt-on air ride struts and shocks for the fox body Mustang that are identical to ours.Their ad is either in last months Muscle Mustangs&Fast Fords or 5.0 Mustang&Super Ford,and they have a website also,I will see if I can locate and post it.Looks like a nice set-up,but alas,not cheap.Then ,of course,nothing worth having ever is right?

O.K. I found it(finally),the place is called Air Ride Technologies like Jason said.They are from Jasper IN.Their ad is in the April 2002 MM&FF page 252,the kit they have is a bolt on for fox chassis Mustangs,therefore it will bolt on to our cars with little or no problem.Their add.is: www.ridetech.com
