How to remove and replace the rear shock absorber safely and effectively on 2009 Lincoln Town Car?

Shock absorbers and strut rods in the rear compartment are capable of extending unexpectedly and should always remain secure from all body parts before replacement or removal efforts begin. Any attempt to heat or flame the shock absorber or strut tube will result in explosion because they contain pressurized gas. Installation of new suspension fasteners demands use of parts with matching numerical designations or equivalent components since these parts serve as vital elements for essential system operation. The technical specifications of torque maintenance serve as a necessary precaution for securing device retention. Start by taking out the wheel alongside tire before applying the rear axle support through proper jack or jackstand tools. The installation requires removal of the upper shock nut together with the washer and insulator discarding all these elements. Secure the new nut at 40 Nm (30 lb-ft) torque value. Move on to the removal of the lower shock nut and bolt as well as shock absorber but discard the nut and bolt. Install the new nut by turning it to 90 Nm (66 lb-ft) torque and reverse all steps to accomplish the installation process. The process of shock absorber installation requires only one machine at a time instead of requiring both units simultaneously.
