    Q:
    What steps should be followed to disassemble the strut assembly and Shock Absorber for the 2008 Ford Escape? Posted by Verified Customer
    A:
    To disassemble the strut assembly, follow these steps. Clean the strut from external dirt. Mount the strut in a vise. Install coil spring compressor tools, ensuring they are fully engaged. Compress the spring until all tension is relieved from the upper mount. Hold the strut piston rod with an Allen key and unscrew the thrust bearing retaining nut with a box-end wrench. Withdraw the top mounting, thrust bearing, upper spring seat, spring, boot, and bump stop. You can Select Your Vehicle to see complete installation and repair tips.
