How to service the shock absorber on both 3-Door and 4-Door on 2004 Ford Focus?

Service of the shock absorber for both 3-Door and 4-Door models begins with removing the load space trim panel then placing it aside. Choose a proper spanner that locks up the piston rod to take off the upper shock absorber mounting retaining nut. After raising and supporting the vehicle take out the shock absorber from its position manually. Staff should perform the final tightening steps of the upper retaining nut with the lower retaining bolt while the vehicle weight rests on its road wheels. Begin the installation by avoiding complete tightening of the lower retaining bolt yet still guiding the shock absorber and placing its piston rod into the locating hole. You need to reduce vehicle height during this step while using a suitable spanner to stop piston rod rotation during upper mounting retaining nut installation. Seal the truck with its trim panel and secure the lower retaining bolt as the last step.
