Suspension/Steering / Shocks and rattles in the rear end.
Just a random thought or two:

Check heat shield s for exhaust/ catalytic converters, exhaust and tail pipe hangers, worn rear sway bar bushings or end links ( if so equipped).  A rubber mallet works good sometimes just to check various areas. 

A funny side note: my moms Lincoln Continent  had a few rattles in the rear..  One was the  loose jack and handle not installed correctly.  Lots of stuff rolling around back there.  Also found rocks/gravel in a u shaped piece under the trunk  that  had found their way in over the years.  Drove me nuts looking for them all. It's about 90 percent better to me. Still rattles a little.

General Fox T-Bird/Cougar Discussion / Hello from Georgia!
Welcome to the site!  i'm up north of you in Gainesville.  Owned an 88 LX 5.0 back in 1990.  Drove it daily until it was totalled in an accident ( not at fault). 

I' m looking for a replacement 88 sport myself.. Good luck with your search!

Godspeed,
Jon

T-Bird/Cougar Parts & Cars WANTED / Looking for 1987 1988 Thunderbird Sport with sunroof
I'm looking for a1988 Thunderbird Sport with sunroof. Prefer an 88 model as they had "dual exhaust" and standard buttstuffog dash. 
Must be a clean driver with air conditioning.

I had an 88 bought in 1990 as a daily driver and got 2 great years from it until it was totaled. Biggest problem was digital dash glitches even Ford could not fix. That's why I want an buttstuffog gauge set.

Located in Georgia -prefer something close as I do not want to incur shipping charges and I am not able to travel very far. Many thanks
