ok my lil sis crashed my mark8 93 and i got a 94 sc what parts can i use for my car ???????
rear lower control arms ,the rear diff, thats what i know interchanges
1. complete rear irs minus the air bags
2. front spindles sway bar links and probaly the rest of the front end minus the air bags
3. entire interior will swap out of one into the other
4. wheels
thats all i know of may be more
That interior will need some work - the rear seat's different, the Mark seats are plusher and not as nice for vigorous driving as the SC seats, and the dash and console will take quite a bit of work to fit in (can be done, but not what I'd call easy.)
And one thing to consider is that standard, the Mark VIII didn't have a traklok diff - it used the ABS controller to apply brakes to get the traction control on an open diff. Just something to think about.
That, and the fact that the aluminum pumpkin can be split before the cast iron one can (Mark VIIIs are aluminum, SCs are cast iron ... ) Then again, if you're up in that HP range, you probably already know this Most people won't notice that, but if you're running a standard, I'd think three times and then wouldn't switch.

If your SC is an auto, you can use the aluminum driveshaft.
is the mark driveshaft better than the s/c I have a 1989 auto with 4.10 and my stock shaft vibrates
