2006 Mercury Monterey Shock Absorber Parts Q&A
Q: How to Service and Repair the Front Shock Absorber on 2006 Mercury Monterey?
A: You should start suspension strut service and repair by taking out the cowl panel grille. The vehicle must be placed in neutral position and positioned on a hoist. Use the hex holding function to stop stud movement during stabilizer bar upper link nut removal followed by its discarding. When installing the suspension component tighten the nut to 76 ft. lbs. so it reaches 103 Nm (76 ft. lbs.). Keeping the axle shaft inside its limits is essential because extended position of the tripod CV joint may trigger internal part disconnection that could break the shaft. Tighten the pinch bolt to 115 Nm (85 ft. lbs.) when reinstalling after removing it and pushing down on the front wheel knuckle to free the strut and spring assembly while supporting the front wheel knuckle to stop axle shaft outboard motion. To begin, remove the cabin air filter then disconnect the electrical connector of the hood disarm switch followed by the wiper motor electrical connector. First tighten the two LH cowl panel bolts to 6 Nm (53 inch lbs.), then remove them followed by the removal of seven remaining bolts that must be tightened to 6 Nm (53 inch lbs.) during reinstallation. First remove the cowl panel and disconnect the speed control cable from vehicles with this feature as a step before setting it aside. Tighten the 3 shock absorber upper nuts to 35 Nm (26 ft. lbs.) before removal before taking out the shock absorber along with its spring assembly. Read the relevant section for instructions about disassembly and assembly of shock absorber and spring assembly. The removal process ends when you follow procedure steps in reverse and verify the front end alignment with necessary adjustments.
