WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2012 Ford Pickup. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The Rear Wheel Drive (RWD) front suspension consists of the following components:
- Lower ball joints
- Lower control arms
- Shock absorber and coil spring assemblies
- Stabilizer bar and links
- Upper control arms
- Wheel bearings and wheel hubs
- Wheel knuckles
- Wheel studs
The vehicle is equipped with a front coil spring suspension. This independent-type suspension utilizes a stabilizer bar to aid in vehicle stability. The wheel hub and wheel bearing are sealed units and are serviced as assemblies. The lower ball joints can be serviced independently from the lower arms.
