Help keep your truck's front end controlled and composed over bumps with this Focus Auto Parts suspension strut, part number 1336331, a direct-fit replacement for the 2004-2008 Ford F-150 and 2006-2008 Lincoln Mark LT. It pairs the strut and coil spring in one front assembly, so the spring arrives already mounted on the strut and the unit goes in as a single piece. See the Buyer's Guide tab for engine details.
- Part type: Suspension strut and coil spring assembly
- Position: Front
- Brand and part number: Focus Auto Parts 1336331
In the front suspension, the strut dampens the up-and-down movement of the wheel, and the coil spring supports the vehicle's weight at that corner and helps hold ride height. Because the spring is already on the strut, you don't have to compress the old spring and move it onto a new strut.
Signs this part may need replacing include excessive bouncing after bumps, nose-diving under braking, fluid leaking from the strut body, a sagging front corner or uneven tire wear. Other suspension problems can cause the same symptoms, so have the suspension inspected before you replace parts. Replacing both front sides together is recommended for balanced handling. Follow the vehicle service information during installation, and have the wheel alignment checked afterward.
