i think one of the fast ford cars is a mk3 estate with self leveling rear suspension. think the way to get round it was to replace the shocks with standard type so may aswell go for a sing and shock kit!

should be a straight swap as far as i know but i've never worked on a mondeo before so dont know but i'm sure thats all that was done in fast ford. there may be a connector to tie up, best bet is to have a look before doing the job.
