How to service and repair a shock absorber on Ford Focus?

You must first take off the luggage compartment side trim panel before reaching the shock absorber upper nut to begin servicing it. The shock rod must be prevented from turning through the hex-holding feature during upper nut removal to protect the shock absorber before discarding the nut. Check the condition of the upper mount then replace it when needed. The first step requires wheel removal along with the tire before extracting the shock absorber by removing its lower bolt which needs discarding. The installer should put the new shock absorber in place and only loosely secure the shock absorber lower bolt at this time before moving ahead. Place back the tire and wheel before the vehicle descent is complete underneath its weight. Secure the shock absorber lower bolt at 103 Nm (76 lb-ft) torque. Holding the hex features will keep the shock rod from rotating as you tighten it to 18 Nm (159 lb-in) torque. The last step involves reinstalling the parcel shelf support panel after finishing all the previous steps. Your safety depends on using newly installed suspension fasteners which have either identical part numbers or match equivalent quality standards for optimal performance.

What precautions should be taken when servicing a shock absorber to prevent personal injury and ensure proper installation on Ford Mustang?

It is imperative to stay away from heating or flame application to both shock absorber and strut tube since they contain gas pressure that can lead to explosions causing serious personal harm. Secure all body parts away from shock absorber and strut rods because they may extend automatically without warning. The performance of vital systems depends on proper suspension fasteners so new parts should receive same part number replacements or equivalent parts with higher quality than alternatives. All reassembly torque values need to be followed to maintain proper engagement of the components. The preferred hoist method for lifting vehicles by frame requires that shock absorber installation should be done one at a time to protect control arm bushings while using a drive-on type hoist. Start the process by accessing the luggage space to relocate the carpet and putting an indicator on the remaining shock absorber that remains in place when positioning the car at ground level. Use two suitable jackstands to support the rear axle by the control arms instead of resting them on the differential housing or allowing the assembly to remain unsupported. Before installation, remove the wheel along with tire. After removing and discarding the shock absorber upper nut and washer and insulator assembly you should install a new nut which requires a torque of 40 Nm (30 lb-ft). Lift the rear axle to position the mark on the rear shock absorber over the protective sleeve before removing and discarding the shock absorber lower bolt and nut alongside the shock absorber. When installing the new bolt users should tighten it to 115 Nm (85 lb-ft) and do it with the suspension at curb height to minimize bushing damage along with incorrect clamp load. The reverse procedures should be performed to end the installation process.
