How to Remove and Replace the Rear Coil Springs on 2008 Ford Escape?

Start removing and replacing the rear coil spring by removing the wheels, tires and then detaching the brake hose bracket-to-wheel knuckle bolt. The brake tube needs removal from the wheel cylinder followed by removal of the brake tube bracket under drum braking systems. The brake caliper guide bolts must be taken out on vehicles with disc brakes after ensuring clearance from the brake hose to prevent damage. Mechanics wire should then be used to support the caliper. Support the wheel knuckle then you should discard the upper ball joint nut and remove both the lower shock absorber nut and its washer and bolt. First remove the upper arm inner bolt and discard it before pulling out the upper arm component while loosening the lower arm inner bolt. Lower the wheel knuckle support with caution and remove the coil spring by maintaining the noted position of the coil spring insulator and coil spring. Align the coil spring and coil spring insulator in their noted position after raising the wheel knuckle support cautiously and position the upper control arm with the installation of the upper arm inner bolt before tightening to 115 Nm (85 lb-ft) under wheel tire weight. After bolt installation of the lower shock absorber with washer and nut tighten these fasteners to 175 Nm (129 lb-ft). Subsequently, install the upper ball joint nut before removing the wheel knuckle support by tightening to 63 Nm (46 lb-ft). I should position the brake caliper and install two brake caliper guide pin bolts which need tightening at 35 Nm (26 lb-ft). Drum brake vehicles require you to connect the brake tube fitting to the wheel cylinder before tightening it to 17 Nm (13 lb-ft) and following it by installing the brake tube bracket bolt and tightening it to 22 Nm (16 lb-ft). As a final step, screw and tighten the brake hose bracket-to-wheel knuckle bolt to 22 Nm (16 lb-ft) and perform brake bleeding on vehicles that use drum brakes.
