12.3.4. Removal and installation of longitudinal levers of a suspension bracket
|
Implementation of the procedures described below will require a press, suitable mandrels and pipes. |
Removal
|
- Car front from the relevant party also establish to Poddomkratta it on the props got under a frame of the chassis and assembly of the forward bridge.
- Remove the corresponding forward wheel.
- At the corresponding complete set give bolts of the stabilizer of cross stability and remove an arm from the longitudinal lever which is subject to replacement.
- Give a nut since the back end of the longitudinal lever, remove a washer and the plug (see an accompanying illustration). Disconnect the sharovy hinge of connecting draft of the steering drive from a rotary fist from the relevant party of the car.
- Give nuts of bolts of fastening of the longitudinal lever to a basic arm of the bridge.
- Get a jack under the forward bridge, then cock it, having unloaded bolts of fastening of the longitudinal lever.
- Take bolts, having beaten out them by means of a brass drift (support a bar in the course of knocking-out of bolts)
- Lower a bar, taking away it from the bridge and remove the back end of a bar from a basic arm on the chassis.
- Examine the longitudinal lever on existence of cracks and signs of deformation, in case of need make replacement.
- Check a condition of plugs in the longitudinal lever. Replace defective plugs (see an accompanying illustration):
- Prop up a bar under the plug which is subject to replacement with a piece of a pipe of suitable diameter (the plug has to pass freely through a pipe).
- By means of the tool which mandrel will rest against an internal steel tube of the plug squeeze out the plug of a bar.
- Moisten the external surface of the new plug with soap water and begin to push gradually the plug on the seat by means of a piece of a pipe which will rest against an external steel tube of the plug.
- Make sure of perpendicularity of landing of the plug and centrality of its arrangement.

Installation
Installation is made upside-down.

- If replacement of plugs is made, attentively check a condition of axial bolts of a bar. Replace worn-out components.
- Install the longitudinal lever on the car, install fixture (nuts, washers and rubber plugs), but do not tighten it finally at this stage. Lower the car on the earth.
- Several times rock the car for shrinkage of components of a suspension bracket, then tighten a chassis nut with effort of 93 ÷ 123 Nanometers. Gayki Bridge tighten 157 ÷ 216 Nanometers with effort.
- Install into place the stabilizer of cross stability.
