You could go buy a Lincoln Towncar. I don't think most of the people here are looking for a cushy suspension, I only have one because it is stock and I don't have the time or money for a sport suspension. I bet there is a Lincoln forum out there somewhere though, probably lots of fellas over there in their 60's who know about cushy suspensions. LOL

^ That's a good one. If Lincoln doesn't work, then try a Cadillac.

the cushiest ride you can have would be with your stock suspension. any modification will only be for stiffness. u know, Europeans laugh that Americans basically like driving couches on wheels!

Stock Springs and some KYB's would probably be a good combo.

Eibachs are certianly not for you

SE springs and some KYBs would probably be the tickket. Keep the stock 205-65-15s but maybe find a slightly sportier model. If you want improved handling w/o springs or lowering:
1) SFCs. Tighten the chassis for less creaks/rattles.
2) RSB. Major difference in handling w/o any ride penalties.
3) Replace all stock control arm/parallel link/Tie rod bushings with new oem.

Sorry, but you didn't say anything in your first post about being "lowered and have a sport suspension", I gathered from your first post you just wanted a cushy ride and didn't care about handling. I am sure the last few guys to reply on this have good info that will help you with that. No need to be thin skinned about one or two sarcastic responses to your thread. If you are looking for cushy, here is a good answer for you:
