Arnott Industries Air Suspension Spring P/N:A-2861
Restore a smooth, level ride at the rear of your 1995-2002 Lincoln Continental with the Arnott Industries Air Suspension Spring A-2212 (also written A2212). This rear-left air spring assembly replaces the original air spring that supports and cushions the corner of the vehicle, using compressed air to carry load and absorb road impacts. As the rubber bladder ages it can crack and leak, letting that corner sag, trigger the compressor to run constantly, or set an air-ride fault — signs the air spring may need replacing.
This unit fits the rear-left position. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full engine-level fitment on the listed applications.
