How to service the trailing arm on Mercury Montego?

The first step for servicing the trailing arm requires you to measure the hub center to fender lip distance when the vehicle rests on a flat surface. First remove the wheel together with the tire assembly. The old trailing arm-to-knuckle bolt needs replacement with a fresh one that requires tightening to 105 Nm (77 ft. lbs.). Follow this step by throwing away the trailing arm-to-subframe nut and bolt and installing fresh hardware which you should tighten up to 110 Nm (81 ft. lbs.). Before securing the lower arm bolts raise the rear suspension with a jack stand until you achieve the initial measurement distance between hub center and fender lip. The installation process ends by following every removal step backward and using new suspension fasteners to protect the complete system.
