Q: How to Service and Repair Coil Springs on Lincoln Town Car?
A: You need to service and repair the coil spring by first securing the vehicle through lifting and supporting then disassembling both the front wheel and tire. The shock absorber removal process requires first undoing the lower mounting bolts after which you should remove the nut and the retainer and the grommet. Homebuilt technicians must use a Coil Spring Compressor to compress the front coil spring until it reaches its position in the front spring insulator. The bolts need removal before the front coil spring can be extracted by pivoting the front suspension lower arm upward. To install the shock absorber position it into the vehicle with the compressed front coil spring but avoid clamping the front suspension lower arm bolts until the vehicle touches the ground when suspension supports vehicle weight. Position the front suspension lower arm for installation while simultaneously fixing it using bolts and nuts until removing the Coil Spring Compressor. Position the shock absorber through the upper shock mount before adding the grommet and retainer along with a nut that requires tightening. The procedure continues with shock absorber lower mounting bolt installation then you can reattach front wheel assemblies and tire components after lowering the vehicle down to complete the process by tightening front suspension lower arm bolts.
Q: How to Remove and Replace the Coil Springs in the Front Suspension on Lincoln MKZ?
A: After discarding all three shock absorber upper mount nuts you should install new ones before tightening them to 30 Nm (22 lb-ft). Begin by taking off the wheel combined with tire and uninstalling the wheel speed sensor bolt while cautioning to tighten it to 23 Nm (17 lb-ft). Begin by removing the wheel speed sensor harness bolt which you should place the sensor aside until final installation when tightening to 23 Nm (17 lb-ft). A suitable jack should be used to support the wheel knuckle at its lower ball joints. An hex-holding feature on the stabilizer bar link upper nut helps prevent the ball stud from turning while installation of a new nut requires a torque setting at 42 Nm (31 lb-ft). Remove the damper fork-to-front lower arm bolt and flagnut followed by the discarding the obsolete components and installation of new ones that need to be tightened at 103 Nm (76 lb-ft) while the suspension rests at the bushing fastener tightening position. The next procedure involves discarding the shock absorber-to-damper fork bolt where separation of the damper fork occurs from the shock absorber and spring assembly before installing a new bolt secured at 48 Nm (35 lb-ft). The technician must lower the wheel knuckle to extract the shock absorber alongside the spring assembly. You must adjust the suspension to the bushing fastener tightening position through raising it until the hub center-mouth fender distance reaches 402 mm (15.83 in) before performing any fastener tightening operations to avoid improper strain on the bushings. The installation can be finished by doing the procedure in reverse order.
Q: How to Service and Repair Coil Springs and Shock Absorber Assembly on Lincoln Navigator?
A: A repair or service procedure for the coil spring and shock absorber assembly needs to start with removal of the wheel combined with its tire. Use the hex holder to keep the screw still before removing the nut which releases the tie-rod from the wheel knuckle and throwing away the nut together with the nuts. Detach the nut, bolt, shock absorber, and spring assembly by discarding the nut once more. Put the upper mount along with the spring and shock absorber into the proper assembly position. Apply a proper spring compressor tool to reduce spring tension on the shock absorber until its tension is eliminated. When possessing the shock rod detach the shock absorber by taking off its nut and washer while discarding the nut. To install reverse all steps of removal beginning with the upper mount, dust shield and insulator.
