How to Remove and Replace the Shock Absorber in the Suspension Strut and Spring Assembly on 2009 Ford Mustang?

You must first discard the four strut upper mount nuts before new installation where you must torque them to 35 Nm (26 lb-ft). Work on the wheel by first removing it then extract the wheel speed sensor bolt before placing the sensor in a safe place and maintaining a 15 Nm (133 lb-in) torque on reinstallation. The next step requires removal of the brake hose bracket bolt and disconnection of the wheel speed sensor wire from its bracket before tightening the connection to 20 Nm (177 lb-in). To prevent stud rotation during stabilizer bar link upper nut removal you should use the hex-holding device that will enable you to take out the nut before disconnecting the link from the strut and then install the new nut with a torque of 115 Nm (85 lb-ft). Support the lower control arm with the right jackstand before marking and keeping the two strut-to-spindle cam bolts for safekeeping after indexing. Also retain the strut-to-spindle cam nuts and bolts. New direct flanged bolts and struts should receive 225 Nm (166 lb-ft) torque when properly installed. To remove the strut along with the spring assembly you should lower the lower control arm into position while making sure that the notch alongside the arrow on the upper bearing assembly will be facing outward during final installation. You should disassemble the strut with spring to perform additional work if needed. When reinstalling first verify the front end alignment while adjusting it as needed before completing the procedure in reverse order.
