Will coil springs from a 1990 crown Victoria fit Lincoln town car?

It's unlikely that coil springs from a 1990 Crown Victoria will directly fit a 1990 Lincoln Town Car, even though they're both Ford products from the same era. While they share some platform similarities, there are differences in weight, suspension tuning, and possibly even spring dimensions that would prevent a direct swap.

Trying to use the wrong springs could lead to:

* Poor handling: The car might handle poorly, feel unsafe, and be prone to accidents.

* Ride height issues: The car's ride height might be incorrect, leading to rubbing and other problems.

* Premature wear: The springs and other suspension components could wear out prematurely.

To be absolutely certain, you should compare the part numbers of the springs from both vehicles. A parts store or online auto parts catalog can provide this information. Even if the part numbers are similar, there's still a chance of incompatibility. It's best to get springs specifically designed for the Lincoln Town Car.
