2007 Ford Crown Victoria Sway Bar Link Parts Questions & Experts Answers

• Q: What Are the Crucial Steps to Service and Repair the Rear Sway Bar Link on 2007 Ford Crown Victoria?

  A: The repair of rear sway bar and link requires understanding that essential suspension fasteners determine system performance until failure results in notable service costs. The installation of new fasteners requires using the exact part numbers of specified or equivalent components which must be superior in quality to non-original designs. Reassembly torque requirements need to be followed strictly alongside correct fastener orientation on every rear suspension arm. The air suspension system should have its electrical power turned off before starting work to stop the air springs from shifting unexpectedly through expansion or compression of the system while performing maintenance. Departure of fire suppression systems must also be initiated during the process. The process starts by hoisting the vehicle to neutral position and following in order to eliminate and save two lower sway bar link nuts with washers and bushings before reinstalling new nuts that need to be tightened at 20 Nm (15 lb-ft). You should continue by removing the two upper sway bar link nuts with washers and bushings and sway bar links before discarding the nuts and putting new ones to 20 Nm (15 lb-ft). Proceed with the sway bar removal by taking out both bracket bolts and sway bar framework as well as sway bar brackets until you reach a 30 Nm (22 lb-ft) torque setting when reinstalling. Before concluding the installation of a fire suppression system it is mandatory to repower the vehicle using the reverse procedure for removal.
