Setup, Compatibility & Care
Compatibility: This specific kit (47-121225) is designed for the Ford Focus MK2 2.5 ST / ST225. Ensure your vehicle model and year match the product specifications before installation.
Setup: Professional installation by a qualified mechanic is highly recommended. The process involves removing the original suspension components and installing the Bilstein coilovers. Ride height adjustment is performed by rotating the spring collars on the threaded shock bodies. It is crucial to have the suspension professionally aligned after installation and adjustment.
Care: Regular visual inspection of the coilovers for any signs of damage, leaks, or corrosion is advised. Keep the threaded shock bodies clean by periodically removing dirt and debris to ensure smooth ride height adjustment. Avoid high-pressure washing directly on the damper seals. Routine checks of all mounting hardware for proper torque are essential for safety.
