Mercury Grand Marquis Air Suspension

The Air Suspension is found in Mercury Grand Marquis cars and exists to improve the vehicles' ride quality with the help of a rubber bag charged with compressed air. This design presents pressure control for customers, where the vehicle can be adjusted on output and flexibility to suit the driver. In contrast to the conventional unit called the coil spring, the Air Suspension offers a more versatile type of suspension. The Air Springs, over the time in the Grand Marquis, have been of different types which are the optimal suited for comfort with an apt handling. The main difference between them is the construction and the particular changes of air pressure they enable; these aspects can substantially affect the car's handling. This characteristic of giving and taking is one that displays the Air Spring in a higher league compared to normal suspension systems.
