Installation Notes and Tips
Install RK621457 at the rear right upper position only on the listed Ford Escape and Mercury Mariner applications. Verify the press-in ball joint and threaded stud interface before installation, and inspect adjacent rear suspension components for wear that could affect alignment or ride quality. Because this assembly is non-adjustable, final alignment should be checked after installation.
