I need a rear suspension control module for the Marauder. I believe the part number is 3W7Z5A919BA.

Does anybody know if the module from a 2003-04 Crown Vic or Grand Marquis will interchange? Or for that matter any other Ford product? I can find Crown Vics and GM modules on Ebay for around 100 bucks but not specifically a Marauder unit

you should be able to install a crownvic/grandmarquis air suspension module into your marauder.

the module also controls the variable assist power steering actuator. the assist curve will be different, so your steering might feel a little different after the swap.

btw: you can make your car driveable in the interim by pulling out the rear air springs and installing a pair of steel coils. the ride might be a little stiffer, but at least your rear axle wouldn't be resting on the bump stops anymore.

do be warned that there's also a variant of the module for cars without rear air suspension. this variant only controls the steering assist and has no support for rear air suspension components. this variant of the module was used in crownvic p71 police cruisers, crownvic p73's, and grand marquis m74 gs's. only the upper level m75 marauders/grandmarquis ls's and p74 crownvic lx's got rear air suspension, the rest had steel coils in the rear.

Just confirmed today that the Rear suspension control module for a Grand Marquis Will interchange with the Marauder. Found one on Ebay for $85 and its on the way

Thanks for everyone's help on this
