How to service the trailing arm on Lincoln MKS?

During trailing arm service you need to first determine the hub center to fender edge distance when the vehicle rests on a flat surface at curb height. Place the vehicle on a jackstand which raises the rear suspension until both hub center and fender lip distance equal the first measurement. You should discard the trailing arm-to-knuckle nut and bolt before installing the new nut to achieve a torque of 90 Nm (66 lb-ft). Install new and discard the trailing arm-to-subframe bolt before tightening it to 122 lb-ft (165 Nm). Reverse the removal steps to finish the installation by using equivalent quality components that match standard torque specifications.
