If you're talking about the Escape, go to Redlinetuning.com, enter your vehicle info on the left, then watch the video. It shows you exactly how to install the struts. No drilling for this vehicle. Took me all of 5 minutes to install both of 'em.
Now on my Colorado (2010), I had to drill...
2020 Ford Escape SEL
2010 Chevy Colorado extended cab V8
2002 Chevy Camaro SS, 35th Anniversary Special Edition
Selling the Colorado, trading the Escape, KEEPING the Camaro!
Wife can't drive (stroke), don't need 3 vehicles, so Maverick will replace the Escape and Colorado.
The only thing I'm planning on doing initially is adding an OEM '71-'74 Maverick Grabber grille emblem, chrome with orange background, to the lower, driver-side grille area. Found a NOS one on ebay. Will figure out how to attach it when the truck arrives!
I hope they do. I put the Red Line struts on my 2020 Escape SEL and they work great. Have used them on other vehicles in the past and they are top-notch items.
