How to service the shock absorber on a wagon on 2003 Mercury Sable?

The shock absorber servicing on the wagon starts with vehicle preparation through the removal of rear compartment access panels together with wheel and tire assembly detachment. When supporting the rear suspension arm together with its bushing for maintenance use an appropriate jack stand to safeguard surrounding components. Hold the shock absorber rod using a wrench instead of pliers because pliers can harm the shock absorber rod surface during removal. A 15 mm crows-foot wrench and ratchet should be used to eliminate the nut together with the washer and rubber insulator. During the shock absorber detachment process it becomes necessary to apply physical effort since the components utilize gas compression systems to attach to the rear wheel spindle. Remove the shock absorber after discarding its bolt. The reverse order applies to installation while you need to use a part of the same number or equivalent for replacement and follow torque specifications for proper component retention.
