• Description:

  This is a front strut top mount nut, base part HN1, used to secure the upper end of a strut assembly to the body tower, cataloged on Explorer, Flex, Mustang, MKS, MKT, and MKX with engines from 2.0L through 3.7L. It supersedes W714682-S440. The dominant catalog name is strut mount nut, appearing also as upper mount nut and shock mount nut on related diagrams. This is a single-use fastener that Ford specifies cannot be reused or reinstalled, so it should be replaced rather than refitted whenever the strut is disturbed. Sample applications are listed here as examples and not a finite list. The nut holds the strut's upper mount under suspension load, so a loose or reused nut produces a clunk over bumps, vague or noisy steering, and a knocking strut. Because it is a safety-critical suspension fastener it must be torqued to the published specification. Ford does not publish one finite vehicle list for this universal fastener, so confirm fit for your specific vehicle by VIN before ordering. This is a multi-year service part that fits across the model years of the listed Ford applications.
