• Q: How to Service and Repair Front Shock Absorber and Coil Springs Assembly on 2002 Ford Thunderbird?

  A: You should start shock absorber and spring assembly servicing by taking off the vehicle's wheel with its attached tire. The hex holding mechanism enables users to stop the stud from rotating when they remove the nut followed by disconnecting the stabilizer bar link and discarding the nut. Begin the process by extracting both bolt and nut to disconnect the shock absorber with spring assembly and disposing of them. Lower the vehicle partially then take away the right upper shock mount cover followed by its retainers and left upper shock mount cover. Passing past the center nut constitutes a serious safety risk because it secures the upper spring mount making its release lead to dangerous spring tension. Follow the removal of four nuts by taking out the shock absorber alongside the spring assembly. The bolt and nut must be installed when end caps for the shock absorber lower bushing are properly set in place. The installation requires exact torque values for all part placement then new components with identical part numbers should replace damaged ones while eliminating inferior components.
