How to service and repair the shock absorber on 2001 Ford Focus?

The first step in servicing or repairing the shock absorber consists of taking out the luggage compartment interior trim panel. A proper use of Allen key prevents the piston rod from rotating as you loosen the shock absorber top mounting nut. Rise the vehicle and place support underneath it. The procedure for 3-door models requires first removing the shock absorber followed by the wagon models needing the upper bolt removal ahead of shock absorber removal. The last stages of suspension part tightness should occur when vehicle weight rests on road wheels. Begin by setting the lower bolt in position while the final installation step should include the upper bolt for 3-door vehicles. The initial part of the lower mounting bolt and washer installation for 3-door models requires you to loosely connect these while guiding the shock absorber strut into position through the locating hole before dropping the vehicle to its normal height. When fastening the top mounting nut use an Allen key to stop the piston rod from rotating. Lastly secure the luggage compartment trim panel while tightening the lower mounting bolt until everything is properly fastened with the vehicle weight on road wheels.
