The lower oscillating arm of the front suspension is composed of a spherical head hooked to the hub support and a bush with silent block fixed with a pin to the engine cradle; to replace, lift the car and remove the front wheel, then unscrew the head fixing nut and use the special fork extractor to free it from the hub support; then unscrew the fixing pin of the bushing and remove the swinging arm to be able to insert the new one: once the bushing has been fixed to the cradle, it is necessary to apply a jack under the suspension to support it enough to be able to insert the head in its seat and fix it .

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.
