Re: IML: 1990 Imperial ABS Retrofit

I would suggest getting everything but the struts and shocks from a salvage
yard.  Struts and shocks are cheap enough that there is little use
installing used parts.  As for the springs and any mounting hardware,
salvage yard is the way to go.  This would be a fairly easy project for
someone with a jack and a few tools.  Of course a wheel alignment is in
order when everything is buttoned up.

Hi, Jon --

My replacement front and rear suspension parts came from a junkyard
Dynasty.  Other K-car models will also fit.  I had a mechanic familiar with
air ride systems do the work.  Cost about $800, mostly labor.  If you use
new parts, you might as well pay to have the air ride system fixed because
it's almost as much.
