Service on the upper arm requires beginning with shock absorber and spring assembly removal. The hex holding feature should be used to stop the stud from turning during nut removal from ball joints and stabilizer bar links while following the removal order shown in illustrations and tables. The brake caliper should never hang from the hose during removal of pads and anchor plate since this could cause damage to the components. The method for upper arm-to-body nut removal requires discarding the nut and moving the power steering reservoir alongside disconnecting both the fluid level sensor connector and the brake master cylinder main pressure transducer electrical connector if the vehicle has this system. Access the master cylinder bolt by backing out the reservoir bolt then remove the two brake master cylinder nuts and place the brake master cylinder to the side.

Prior to installing the lower arm you should check and align the front end as needed. Install the lower arm-to-frame nuts and upper arm-to-body nuts only after reaching installation completion and making sure vehicle weight rests on wheel tires.

Q: How to service and repair the front wheel hub on Ford Thunderbird?
A:
The repair process for front wheel hubs begins by selecting neutral drive position followed by placing the vehicle on a hoist. Service on the upper arm requires beginning with Shock Absorber and spring assembly removal. The hex holding feature should be used to stop the stud from turning during nut removal from ball joints and stabilizer bar links while following the removal order shown in illustrations and tables. The Brake Caliper should never hang from the hose during removal of pads and anchor plate since this could cause damage to the components. The method for upper arm-to-body nut removal requires discarding the nut and moving the Power Steering Reservoir alongside disconnecting both the fluid level sensor connector and the Brake Master Cylinder main pressure transducer electrical connector if the vehicle has this system. Access the master cylinder bolt by backing out the reservoir bolt then remove the two brake master cylinder nuts and place the brake master cylinder to the side. It is necessary to start lower arm-to-frame bolt removal by removing screws and pushpins and shield for access followed by removing bolts and nuts to set the steering gear aside before removing the lower arm bolt. Prior to installing the lower arm you should check and align the front end as needed. Install the lower arm-to-frame nuts and upper arm-to-body nuts only after reaching installation completion and making sure vehicle weight rests on wheel tires.
