Ford Focus - Video tutorial

Model: Ford Focus MK 1 - Years 1998-2004
Part: Drive shaft
Operation: Disassembly of the Ford Focus MK1 drive shaft

Today we will see the instructions for disassembling and replacing the drive shaft on a Ford Focus first series, following these steps. First of all we lift the car and remove the front wheel; then we go to disconnect the suspension from the braking system, unscrewing the fixing pin. At this point we unscrew the hub bolt and let it come out of our axle shaft, using a sturdy lever; then we pry the end in order to remove the front axle shaft, as shown in the video. We just have to replace it with the new one, following the video to the end!

Handbrake adjustment on Ford Ecosport

First remove the plastic profile at the base of the gear lever. To do this, slightly widen the side edges and carefully lift it to release it. There is no need to remove it completely, just move it forward to avoid bother. Now remove the plastic center console around the handbrake by first working from the rear to release it and lifting it until the brake lever passes. Also in this case it is not necessary to remove it completely but, paying attention to the connected cables, it can be stowed in front of the passenger seat. At this point we notice that at the base of the handbrake lever, on the front, we find a nut. By acting on it, with a 10 wrench, we can adjust the brake force, increasing it by turning the nut clockwise, or decreasing it by turning it counterclockwise. Once adjusted, the center console can be repositioned first, pressing lightly to engage it, and then the profile of the gearbox base.
