Just to let anyone that is interested to know; Bilstein front shocks part# BSN-24-014953 and Bilstein rear shocks part# BSN-24-014960 will fit the Panther chassis (at least an '86 Crown Vic anyways). These were bought through Summit Racing at $94.95/ea and $89.95/ea respectively. They're pricey, but worth it, if you want a firm and stiff ride (sporty). The thing to note with most Bilstein shocks is that the stud is pressed into the shocks (at least for the rear), so you will have to remove the mounting stud off of the shockl mounting bracket and then reverse mount the shock (install it from the front of the bracket). I haven't installed the front shocks yet, but they match the replacements that I'm currently running. I hope to rebuild the front suspension in the next two weeks.
