How to service the rear shock absorber on 2009 Ford Escape?

The service procedure for the rear shock absorber begins with removing both the rear quarter trim panel and wheel and tire. A suitable jackstand should be used for supporting the rear suspension. You should first eliminate the upper shock absorber nut along with the bushing assembly then introduce fresh components by installing a nut with bushing followed by tightening it to 40 Nm (30 lb-ft). After removing the lower shock absorber nut with washer and bolt utilize a new nut which should be tightened to 175 Nm (129 lb-ft). Reinstall the shock absorber while performing the reverse order of removal to end the installation process. Maintenance success relies heavily on the use of equivalent quality new parts with identical part numbers followed by torquing each component to its specified values so that suspension components work correctly.
