Re: IML: 1991imperial rear suspension



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.

Anthony. IMO, the best solution is to replace those rear shocks with
Gabriel Hijackers and run the air lines into the trunk where you can
manually adjust the ride height. The wheelbase on these cars is such that
some sort of load leveling in the rear is a must. The auto leveling
system
on these cars was poorly designed IMO and even more poorly implemented.
The
system is all but unservicable due to the price of the parts involved.
Forget that compressor mounted behind the rear wheel, that's a gonner.
You
will find that you will not have to adjust your ride height very often so
the trunk mounted filler does the job just fine.

Brad, I looked under and saw no bags. I believe the compressor for the system would be near the right rear tire? Anyway, can you directed me to
fix
the problem if it's a load leveling issue or a air wheel ride? Brad, I
believe it would be a load level ride because this car did not come with a
lot of extras. -Let me know what solutions are out there for both
problems -Thanks -Anthony
