Monroe Quick-Strut Front Suspension Assembly 171361 for Ford F-150 — Preassembled Strut & Coil Spring, Direct-Fit

Monroe Quick-Strut 171361 is a fully assembled front suspension strut and coil spring engineered to replace the original front strut on compatible Ford F-150 and Lincoln Mark LT models without a spring compressor.

This assembled Quick-Strut is built in Paragould, Arkansas using domestic and imported components to deliver a direct-fit replacement that restores ride height, handling and steering feel. It combines a precalibrated coil spring, OE-style strut and an upper mount into a single unit so installation is faster, safer and requires fewer tools than rebuilding a strut from individual components. The design focuses on vehicle-specific fit, corrosion protection and long-term structural durability so your front suspension performs reliably under everyday driving conditions.

How does this Quick-Strut make front-end repairs faster and safer?

Because the Monroe Quick-Strut comes preassembled, there's no need to compress the spring or transfer parts from the old strut. This reduces workshop time and eliminates the most dangerous step of strut replacement, lowering risk while simplifying the job for DIYers and technicians alike.

• Includes strut, coil spring and upper mount as one assembled unit
• No spring compressor required during installation
• Direct-fit design reduces labor and alignment of mounting components

Will this part restore ride height and handling on my F-150?

Yes — the coil spring in each Monroe Quick-Strut is application-specific and engineered to match the original equipment spring rate and length. That helps return the truck to its intended ride height while supporting vehicle weight for expected handling and stability.

• Pre-tuned spring rate for OE ride height restoration
• Strut valving and mount matched to vehicle dynamics
• Reduces body sway and road harshness to improve control

Is this Quick-Strut compatible with my vehicle and how do I check fitment?

This Monroe Quick-Strut 171361 fits specific model years of the Ford F-150 and some Lincoln Mark LT trucks. Always verify compatibility by entering your year, make, model, engine and trim in the retailer’s confirmed-fit tool and review any additional fit notes before ordering.

• Lists coverage for 2004–2008 Ford F-150 applications and 2006–2008 Lincoln Mark LT
• Use the Amazon Confirmed Fit or seller fitment tool to confirm exact fit
• Check qualifier notes when an information icon appears for special conditions

What durability and corrosion protections does it include?

Monroe constructs the strut with high-quality steel, reinforced tube and welds, plus a protective coating to resist rust. The assembly undergoes salt spray testing to ensure it withstands exposure to road salts and seasonal conditions common in many regions.

• Heavy-duty steel construction with superior tube and weld design
• Protective coating limits corrosion on exposed surfaces
• Salt spray testing for improved seasonal durability

Who is this for: This Monroe Quick-Strut 171361 is aimed at owners and technicians working on compatible 2004–2008 Ford F-150s and 2006–2008 Lincoln Mark LTs who want a replacement that installs quickly, restores original ride height and improves steering precision without the need to assemble separate spring and mount parts. It’s ideal for DIY mechanics who prefer a safer, ready-to-install unit as well as professional shops seeking consistent, vehicle-specific performance from a trusted aftermarket brand.
