Really clean 1988 5.0 Cougar Reply #11 – October 03, 2007, 05:58:06 PM One question about the LS... does it have the same suspension and rear end as the XR-7 in 1988? Quote Selected
Really clean 1988 5.0 Cougar Reply #12 – October 03, 2007, 06:31:37 PM NO. If it's an 88 XR7 it will have an 8.8 rear LS has 7.5Also, according to Coolcats, the console was an option on the LS in '88. I doubt there are very many that came like that. Quote Selected

Really clean 1988 5.0 Cougar Reply #14 – October 03, 2007, 09:48:40 PM According to Eric's write up, and LS with the 5.0L was an XR7 with different wheels and trim. That was in the 1988 info. Looking at the rear end tech info, it says 88 XR7 was the only Cougar that used the 8.8. So this car does not. Quote Selected
