Brian, I can't thank you enough... I know it takes a while to shoot videos, edit them, re-takes, uploading, etc. But you are helping so many people. I recently bought a 2009 Ford Escape that I really love. I got it knowing that it had issues, but I got it for such a cheap price because the seller didn't know how to work on cars. It was really, really cheap. Because of you, I was able to replace the struts, rear shocks, radio, vent mode actuator, hatchback actuator, and all motor/trans mounts. It is like a brand new car now, and I owe it to you!! Because of your videos, I knew what was wrong, were to get the parts, the exact tools needed, step by step on how to do it, torque specs, etc. Today I replaced struts and shocks in one hour. It now rides as good as my Volvo. You saved me a ton of cash over taking to the shop, and allowed me to buy a great car at a rock bottom price. What you do makes a huge difference on peoples lives. Thank you!

My 2005 Escape Limited is at 117,000 and I used your video on front disk brakes to do the job myself. Your video on my tablet was a step by step tutorial as I progressed on the driver side. The passenger side took about 1/4 the time since I now knew what to do. Changing the struts don't appear as challenging as I thought.

Brian, You are a Ford LEGEND !!!...I finally gave my '05 Escape to my girlfriend's daughter. Had 340,000 miles and still going strong. I had replaced my front struts at 188,000 and again at 317,000 miles. The Quick Struts are great !!...at the Airlines we use Aero Kroil as a rust penetrant...I think I had seen you use it in a video a while back...great stuff !!...I bought a 2016 4 Runner that was a lease return with 13,000 miles after much research on Consumer Reports. Solid truck. The lessee had brought it in for a "burning" smell and I noticed it a few times myself... got out of the truck and could not locate it under the hood...must be something on the inside. It happened again last Friday driving home so I'm taking it to the dealer on Monday to have them look at it...Will probably a "can not duplicate" !!....any suggestions where to look or how to find it...I don't own a "Smellometer"...LOL !!!....when it goes out of warranty in 6,000 miles and it is still occurring can this still be considered "warranty repair" ??...I don't want to be on the hook if they can't find or fix it.

I have to say your videos are awesome, very well done and very helpful. I found your channel after the usual throttle body problem on my wife's 2009 Escape XLT. Now I find myself watching your videos just because they are so informative! I've watched ones that I don't even need to fix yet, but now I'll know when I do. I'm not a Ford person by any means, and minus the transmission crapping out at 90k and needing to be rebuilt and the constant junky sway bar links these cars are awesome. I wish that Ford had kept making them and just fixed the few stupid common problems with them (Throttle body, sway bar links and transmission weakness). My wife's has 134k on it now it I love reading the comments and people are getting 200-300k out of these. They are built like damn tanks! I just ordered a whole Mevotech lower control arm because I need to replace a ball joint and I got it for the same price, and I've heard that's the way to go. Sorry for the long reply but just wanted to give you a thumbs up!

Got a set of Ford OEM's from RockAuto for less than half the dealer asking price here in Canada (3 day shipping and customs included!). Wish I could have used your Amazon affiliate links, but amazon's shipping cost to Canada was insane.

It happened gradually. Also at that mileage you might want to check your subframe if you're in the rust belt. Mine was completely rotten and I had to change it last fall.

When I back out of my asphalt driveway I can hear my front suspension pop when going a few bumps. I've got about 135k miles on her and may need to replace my front struts. I also have a humming noise that gets louder the faster you drive. I know it's not the front wheel bearings or drive axels because I've changed them out, and hope it's not the transmission. I've got to get it jacked up and put it in gear and see if I can pinpoint the noise. Could be the transfer case or differential.

Awesome instructional video. Thanks FordTechMakuloco! The only part I had real trouble with was the stab link. When I removed the nut, the bolt went cockeyed and everything I tried was failing to straighten it out so it would release from the hole in the strut. I finally hammered it out and ended up damaging the threads on the bolt. Fortunately the damage was not too terrible and I was able to get the nut to re-thread the bolt. To reinstall the stab link I had to put a c-clamp on the stabilizer bar and clamp it down. I also had to put the wheel back on in order to compress the strut which and finally was able to get the stab link bolt in the strut hole straight and tighten the nut. Do you have any other advice for the stab link removal/reinstall? Thanks again.

Stab(ilizer) link on my '02 had no hexes on the stud, out the front for a allen or on the back for a wrench. Guess they improved it when they got to your year. Of course it just spun. Tried to grab the back with long-nose vice-grips, but it didn't hold. The stud is too hard to get a good bite into it. Finally just had to cut it off with a reciprocating saw.
