Ford 7R3Z-18124-B Kit - Shock Absorber

You can Select Your Vehicle to check if 7R3Z-18124-B fits your vehicle.

If you suspect worn or weak shock absorbers, repeat the check at each of the three remaining corners of the vehicle. Additionally, raise the vehicle and support it securely on jackstands to inspect the shock absorbers for evidence of fluid leakage. Some light film of fluid is generally not a cause for concern, but if significant leakage is noticed, it's advisable to replace the shocks as a set. Ensure that the leakage is from the shocks and not another source. Check the shocks to make sure they are securely mounted and undamaged. Also, inspect the upper mounts for damage and wear.

Signs of wear that indicate the need for strut or coil spring replacement include leaking fluid, loss of damping capability, and cracked coil springs.

For models equipped with a rear stabilizer bar, the stabilizer bar links should be removed from the chassis, and the stabilizer bar should be moved to gain access to the lower shock mounting fasteners.

Inspect the strut body for damage and the coil spring and spring seat for any issues.
