Keep the rear axle centered and planted through every bump with the Dorman - Premium Watts Link WL85509PR. This rear suspension Watts link installs as a direct-fit replacement that fits and performs like the original equipment on the 1998-2011 Ford Crown Victoria [All], 1998-2004 Ford Grand Marquis [All], 1998-2011 Lincoln Town Car [All], 1998-2011 Mercury Grand Marquis [All], and 2003-2004 Mercury Marauder [All]. Mounted at the rear, it uses a central pivot and lateral links to control the axle's side-to-side movement while allowing normal vertical suspension travel, helping keep handling stable and predictable.
If worn or noisy rear-suspension components are the cause of clunking or vague handling, this replaces the original assembly. Made in China. Package contains 1 Watts link.
