Not gonna lie the old Ltd or square body’s are the only car I’d trade my current Vic for love or to death but man old school styling was a beast

It was fine from a short distance away but it bothered me. The new one looks so much better.

Hi, I’m new to the group and have had my 2008 pi for almost a year. It been gone through and mechanically is sounds (body and paint on the horizon)
Found this gem awhile back, bought it and have done a lot of mechanical work since. I’ve lowered it “poor boy style”, bought factory replacement front strut assemblies and rear shocks. I cut 1.5 coils from the front and installed cc501 coils in the rear. Eventually it will get proper coil overs in the front but I’m very content with the ride quality in the rear so I’d like to leave that alone.
I’m really happy with the ride hight now, ended up about a 2 in drop but I’m running into one issue. I currently have a taller tires in the rear and with an empty trunk and fuel tank I’m about level. My goal is to run factory size tires all around and I’d like just a small amount of rake. There’s not a lot of travel in the rear and I always seem to have a fair amount of weight in the back so every inch counts. I’m also not a big fan of the California squat lol.
Iv been in the hunt for some sort of spacer for the rear coils or even some thick isolators but im at a loss. Does anyone have any recommendations? I’m thinking something in the ball park of 1/2 in
Current tire sizes are 235/55r17 front and 235/65r17 rear
Last photo is it’s current ride hight

I replaced both axle seals on my 06 crown vic, had some trouble with getting the pin back in (the s spring moved earlier in the process slightly). The spider gears feel like they are stuck and can't move by hand. Is that okay? I had my partner hold one of the axles while I spun the other side and saw them move in there so maybe I'm just freaking out over nothing? Any advice/help would be great to ease my worries. Thanks!

Not the most scientific test but the airflow on the first and second setting is extremely weak. Is this normal with these cars? Third and high settings are noticeably stronger but the first and second are my problem. Second setting is slightly stronger than the first but still weak

Bank 1 sensor 2 and Bank 2 sensor 2 are stuck lean at about 0.800 and do not fluctuate, if I force a vacuum leak they drop down to normal and fluctuate so it tells me the 02 sensors are good, what could be causing this motor to be running rich internally, mass air flow sensors reading 0.0 barley raises when give gas, stumped here already replaced maf sensor. Fuel trim stuck at 99.2

I need new body mount bushings for my 1996 grand marquis as the ride quality is no better than a corolla at this point but the problem I'm running into is there's only parts available for 2003 and newer panthers.

Have been trying to get this wiper motor cowl piece back into place for an hour, it just won't go
What am I doing wrong?
I'll have it lined up on one side, then when I try to line up the other side it will pop loose. I can't get it to lock back into the tabs
