Re: IML: 1991imperial rear suspension

["Peter" <starflite@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi  Anthony:  I have a 91 Imperial and 93 5th Ave. Both had the leveling 
rear suspension and both compressors failed.  I had great luck with rear 
"cargo coils "which are for the Dynasty. They give great ride and load 
carrying capabilities.
                    I believe the part number is  CC705  by Moog. They cost 
about $125.00 cdn and are available from your local parts store. I got mine 
from NAPA.
                   They are a direct fit.

                   1991 Imperial
                   1993 5th Ave.
