• Description:

  This is a genuine Ford strut lower bolt for the 20-25 Escape, the fastener that secures the front suspension strut to the steering knuckle at the lower mounting joint. It carries the clamping load that locates the bottom of the strut and holds wheel alignment geometry in place while the suspension cycles. The bolt threads through the lower strut bracket and knuckle, and on the continuous-damping configuration it works alongside the standard setup to keep the damper rigidly anchored. Drivers replacing this bolt are usually performing front strut or knuckle service, addressing a clunk or knock over bumps, correcting alignment after suspension work, or replacing hardware that was removed during a wheel bearing or control arm job. This is a single-use, torque-to-yield fastener that stretches when tightened to specification, so it cannot be reused once loosened and must be replaced with new hardware every time the joint is opened. Reusing a stretched bolt risks loss of clamp load, a loose strut, and unsafe handling. Manufactured to Ford specifications, it provides the correct thread, length, and grade for proper fit in the original location without modification. Install it to the published Ford torque sequence and verify front alignment after the strut is reassembled. Inspect the mating strut bracket and knuckle threads for damage before fitting the new bolt, and confirm the application matches the Escape front strut diagram for the build year and damping configuration.

• Notes: Part cannot be reused/reinstalled.
