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

Removal

Самоконтрящиеся “Nylock” nuts at assembly are subject to replacement without fail. Where it is required, replace also sealing couplings of shtutserny 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-section stability (40 Nanometers)

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

PERFORMANCE ORDER

1. Dump pressure in hydraulic system (see. Head Uniform hydraulic system).
2. Prop up protivootkatny boots back wheels, then поддомкратьте a front of the car and establish it on props. Remove the corresponding forward wheel.
3. Get suitable drain capacity under spuskny the gate of a hydraulic regulator and, by a nazhimaniye on the bottom lever, let out from the hydraulic block of a suspension bracket as much as possible liquid.
4. Give a fixing nut and disconnect a rack of the stabilizer of cross-section 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 thus of protection of a carving, having screwed on some rounds a nut).
5. To Otboltita from a suspension bracket rack also shift aside a basic arm of lines of communication. Track, that plaits of electroconducting and hoses did not appear are 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 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 бокорезами a fixing collar and liberate the tube end from a rack. Prepare for collecting spilled liquid, at once закупорьте the open ends of a tube and reception port in a rack in order to avoid hit in dirt system.

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

Rack removal complete with the hydraulic block

PERFORMANCE ORDER

1. In an impellent compartment release the shtutserny socket and disconnect a tube of supply of liquid from the hydraulic block. At once закупорьте 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 dirt system. To Otboltita from the hydraulic block a basic arm (ы) tubes.

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

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

Rack removal 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 shtutserny 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 cone of a rack of a suspension bracket (under a nut) getting oil for the purpose of simplification of procedure of office of assembly from the hydraulic block.
4. Unscrew a nut and take a rack through a wheel arch.

Installation

Rack assembled with the hydraulic block

PERFORMANCE ORDER

1. Get assembly on the regular place. Track, that there was no supply of liquid jammed a tube. Screw bolts of fastening of the hydraulic block and tighten them with demanded effort.
2. Connect to the block submitting tube (do not forget to replace a sealing washer) and tighten the shtutserny socket.
3. Pass to performance of the procedures described below, since 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 fixing hermetic, then get assembly on the regular place in a wheel arch. Screw a fixing nut and tighten it with demanded effort.
3. Fix on the basis of the hydraulic block a protective cover.

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 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 demanded effort.
5. Connect to a suspension bracket rack a rack of the stabilizer of cross-section stability and tighten a new nut of a spherical finger with demanded effort.
6. Establish on a rack a basic arm of lines of communication and fix it two bolts.
7. Connect to a rack a returnable tube (do not forget to replace in case of need a sealant) and fix it a new collar.
8. Establish a wheel, lower the car on the earth and tighten wheel bolts with demanded effort.
9. Tighten spuskny the gate of a regulator of pressure and transfer a control lever a suspension bracket to the situation "Maximum".
10. Check level of hydraulic liquid, in case of need make the corresponding adjustment (address to Head Routine maintenance).
