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

Suspension strut service and repair begins with removing the strut and spring assembly while taking proper precautions with the highly tensed spring for safety reasons. Make use of a suitable coil spring compressor to minimize spring tension. You should prevent piston rod rotation by using an Allen key to loosen the thrust bearing nut. Unfasten the piston rod nut then remove the top mount bearing together with the top mount and the upper spring seat and strut and boot. Install each spring ending by fitting it correctly against the spring seats and refer to the color coding on the bottom before placing the bump stop with its flat surface facing upwards. Reassemble the components through the reverse steps of disassembly to finish the assembly process.
