Ford DG1Z-18124-L Shock Absorber Assembly

You can Select Your Vehicle to check if DG1Z-18124-L fits your vehicle.

If the vehicle's body continues to move excessively after being pushed down, worn or weak shock absorbers may be the cause.

For these models, start by measuring the distance from the center of the wheel hub to the lip of the fender with the vehicle at rest. Then, open the trunk and pull back the interior quarter trim panel. Loosen the wheel lug nuts, raise the vehicle, and support it securely on jackstands, blocking the front wheels to prevent rolling. Remove the rear wheel and support the lower suspension arm with a floor jack.

The inspection procedures are the same as for the 2012 and earlier models.

In the engine compartment, mark the relationship of one of the mounting studs to the body, then loosen the four upper mounting nuts. Loosen the wheel lug nuts, raise the vehicle, and support it securely on jackstands. Remove the wheel. Detach the ABS wheel speed sensor harness from the strut. Support the outer end of the lower control arm with a floor jack. Unscrew the nuts securing the strut to the steering knuckle, then tap the bolts out with a hammer. Use the floor jack to lower the knuckle to allow room to remove the shock absorber/coil spring assembly, but be careful not to overextend the inner CV joint.
