Repair and operation of the car

Removal and installation of assemblies of racks / hydraulic blocks of a forward suspension bracket

Removal

Самоконтрящиеся nuts of "Nylock" at assembly are subject to replacement without fail. Where it is required, replace also sealing couplings of nipple sockets of hydraulic tubes.

Components of rack-mount assembly of a forward suspension bracket

1 — the Nut of the hydraulic cylinder of a suspension bracket
2 — the suspension bracket Cylinder on a body (25 Nanometers)
3 — Fastening of a bar of the stabilizer of cross stability (40 Nanometers)

4 — Fastening of a bar of the stabilizer of cross stability (40 Nanometers)
5 — the Nut of the spherical hinge (45 Nanometers)

PERFORMANCE ORDER

1. Dump pressure in hydraulic system (see the Head Uniform hydraulic system).
2. Prop up antiretractable boots back wheels, then a front of the car and establish to a poddomkratta it on props. Remove the corresponding forward wheel.
3. Get suitable drain capacity under spuskny the gate of the hydraulic regulator and, by a nazhimaniye on the lower lever, produce as much as possible liquid from the hydraulic block of a suspension bracket.
4. Give a fixing nut and disconnect a rack of the stabilizer of cross stability from a suspension bracket rack. The general view of rack-mount assembly is shown on an illustration Components of rack-mount assembly of a forward suspension bracket. For keeping of a rack-mount finger from a provorachivaniye use a prutkovy key on 5.0 mm. Be in case of need ready to apply a divider of spherical support to a partition of components (do not forget to take care at the same time of protection of a carving, having screwed a nut on several rounds).
5. Otboltite from a suspension bracket rack also shift a basic arm of lines of communication aside. Track that plaits of an electrical wiring and hoses were not excessively tense.

6. Give a nut of a coupling bolt of a collar of fastening of stupichny assembly on a suspension bracket rack.

7. By means of a prutkovy key on 8.0 mm unclench a collar (see the subsection "Removal and Installation of Stupichny Assembly of a Forward Suspension Bracket — Removal", the last point) and remove stupichny assembly from a suspension bracket rack.

8. Disconnect a returnable hydraulic tube from a suspension bracket rack for what have a bite bokorezam a fixing collar and release the end of a tube from a rack. Prepare for collecting the spilled liquid, at once a zakuporta the open ends of a tube and reception port in a rack in order to avoid hit in system of dirt.

9. Further act as directed, provided in the corresponding subsections (depending on the volume of the forthcoming works).

Removal of a rack complete with the hydraulic block

PERFORMANCE ORDER

1. In a motive compartment release the nipple socket and disconnect a tube of supply of liquid from the hydraulic block. At once to a zakuporta the open ends of a tube and the reception union of the hydraulic block for the purpose of minimization of losses of liquid and in order to avoid hit in system of dirt. Otboltite from the hydraulic block a basic arm(s) of tubes.

2. Turn out four bolts of fastening of the hydraulic block to a car body.

3. Lift assembly up and take it through a motive compartment, accurately passing a tube of supply of hydraulic liquid through an opening in the body panel.

Removal of a rack in an individual order

PERFORMANCE ORDER

1. In an arch of a wheel separate a protective cover from the basis of the hydraulic block.

2. Having hooked, remove a plastic cover, then weaken a cap nut of the nipple socket of fastening of a hydraulic tube to the top part of a rack (in case of need block a rack from a provorachivaniye by means of a shlitsevy key).

3. Moisten a suspension bracket rack cone (under a nut) the getting oil for the purpose of simplification of the procedure of separation of assembly from the hydraulic block.
4. Turn off a nut and take a rack through a wheel arch.

Installation

Rack assembled with the hydraulic block

PERFORMANCE ORDER

1. Start assembly on the regular place. Track that there was no liquid supply jammed a tube. Screw bolts of fastening of the hydraulic block and tighten them with the required effort.
2. Connect the giving tube (do not forget to replace a sealing washer) to the block and tighten the nipple socket.
3. You pass to performing procedures, described below, since the subsection "General Procedures", item 1.

Suspension bracket rack

PERFORMANCE ORDER

1. Grease the top part of a cone of a rack and sealing surfaces hydraulic LHM liquid.
2. Cover a carving part of a rack with the fixing sealant, then bring assembly on the regular place to a wheel arch. Screw a fixing nut and tighten it with the required effort.
3. Fix a protective cover on the basis of the hydraulic block.

General procedures

PERFORMANCE ORDER

1. By means of a prutkovy key unclench a collar of fastening of stupichny assembly.
2. Put on stupichny assembly a suspension bracket rack, having tracked that the directing ledge got to a collar groove.
3. Push stupichny assembly against the stop the bearing coat hanger on a rack.
4. Insert a coupling bolt (from the forward party of a rack), screw on it a new nut and tighten it with the required effort.
5. Connect a rack of the stabilizer of cross stability to a suspension bracket rack and tighten a new nut of a spherical finger with the required effort.
6. Establish a basic arm of lines of communication on a rack and fix it by two bolts.
7. Connect a returnable tube (do not forget to replace in case of need a sealant) to a rack and fix it by a new collar.
8. Establish a wheel, lower the car on the earth and tighten wheel bolts with the required effort.
9. Tighten spuskny the gate of the regulator of pressure and transfer a control lever a suspension bracket to situation "Maximum".
10. Check the level of hydraulic liquid, in case of need make the corresponding adjustment (address the Head Routine maintenance).
