• Description:

  This genuine Ford bolt, part number W710775-S439, is a suspension shock absorber bolt used on the Explorer, Explorer Sport Trac, and Mercury Mountaineer from roughly 02-10, fitting two-wheel-drive and four-wheel-drive configurations. It clamps the lower end of the shock or strut to its suspension bracket, locating the damper so it can control wheel motion over bumps. Buyers search for this bolt when replacing a worn shock or strut, since the original is frequently corroded, rounded off, or discarded during the job and the lower mount must be bolted securely. A loose or worn shock bolt lets the damper shift in its bracket, causing knocking over bumps, vague handling, or a clunk from the suspension. Ford lists this as a genuine shock absorber bolt, and using the OEM part ensures the correct grade and clamp so the damper is held firmly. Installing the proper bolt restores quiet, controlled suspension action. Torque to the published specification with the suspension supported at ride height where required, confirm the shock eye or bracket is seated, and inspect the threads before reuse, replacing the bolt if it shows corrosion or damage.

• Notes: Included with strut.
