Ford Focus - Video tutorial

Model: Ford Focus MK 3 - Years 2011-2018
Part: Arm
Operation: Suspension swing arm disassembly instructions

The video shows the crash break of the suspension wishbone caused by the collision of the front wheel which also damaged the rim, the steering box tie rod and caused the drive shaft to come out; disassembling the swinging arm requires first the removal of the ball head from the hub support and then moving on to the other two ends of the arm respectively fixed to the engine cradle and to the car chassis through a bush inside which a silent blok rubber is integrated; once all the pins have been removed, the arm can be removed from its seat.

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.
