How to remove and install the Control Arm in the suspension system on 2007 Ford Focus?

On 2008 and later models, the manufacturer advises that all suspension and steering system fasteners requiring specific torque should be replaced with new ones whenever removed, excluding the subframe bolts. The bushings in the suspension arms cannot be replaced separately; the complete Control Arm must be replaced if there is any wear or damage. Begin by removing the rear suspension coil spring to achieve the Design Height setting. Next, unscrew and remove the bolt securing the Control Arm to the hub assembly, followed by the bolt securing the Control Arm to the crossmember, removing the two mounting bolts for wagon models (other models are similar), and withdraw the Control Arm from under the vehicle, noting the installation orientation for reassembly. Installation is a reversal of the removal procedure, ensuring the Control Arm is installed correctly. Delay fully tightening the Control Arm mounting bolts until the suspension Design Height setting procedure has been completed.
