lincoln mark VIII suspension

[bryantracing460]

Been looking at the crown vic swaps and wondered if a lincoln mark 8 front end would also work. If anyone could give me some measurements I could check. I have a 95 mark 8 w/ bad trans.

The front end from a 95 Mark VIII is a completely different animal. The Crown Vic is all one piece that bolts to the frame and as you probably saw the Mark VIII uses the frame for mounting the control arms and spring perches. Also the Mark VIII is narrower track width. Overall I would say no it won't work.

92-97 crown civ frames are the same lenght as your short bed. You may need to fab up some mounts but it will work just fine.

Do you have any pics of this done to a truck?

Yes the mark 8 IRS works great in the f100's even with the 03-08 CV front suspension.
