How to Service and Repair the Front Shock Absorber on 2001 Ford Escort?

The first step for suspending front strut and spring assembly is the removal of their components. Safety goggles must always be worn when handling a spring compressor. Place the assembly within a proper fixture while using the Strut Spring Compressor Master Set for front coil spring compression. Start by taking away the shock absorber piston rod nut followed by separating the front shock absorber upper mounting bracket. Follow these steps to extract the sequence of parts which include the bound stopper (A), dust boot (B), rubber spring seat (C), spring (D), upper spring seat (E) and thrust bearing (F). The assembly requires fresh fasteners whenever you take out or loosen existing elements and requires shock absorber bolt and strut and spring bolt realignment following this work. The assembly procedure should be reversed after confirming that the spring sits correctly within the insulator.
