Ford Escape: Rear Suspension / Description and Operation - Rear Suspension - Overview
Overview
The rear suspension consists of the following components:
- Coil springs
- lower arms
- Shock absorber
- Stabilizer bar and links
- Toe links
- Upper arms
- Wheel bearing and wheel hub assemblies
- Wheel knuckles
- Wheel studs
The rear suspension uses 2 parallel arms (1 upper and 1 lower). Each arm has a mounting position to the chassis and an attachment at the wheel knuckle.

The stabilizer bar and links control suspension lean/sway.
