Removal, service and installation of rack-mount assemblages
Removal
|
|
- Hang out the car over the earth.
- Remove forward wheels.
- Release a nut of fastening of a bar of the stabilizer of cross-section stability to the corresponding bottom lever of a suspension bracket (see Has undressed Removal, check of a condition of components and installation of the stabilizer of cross-section stability).
|
|
- Release a nut (1) axial bolts of fastening of a plug of rack-mount assemblage to the bottom lever of a suspension bracket.
|
- Take an axial bolt of a plug.
|
|
- Release coupling bolts and remove a plug (1) bottom support of rack-mount assemblage.
|
|
|
- Open a cowl and through an aperture in a mudguard of a wheel arch release three nuts of fastening of rack-mount assemblage to the basic block on a frame.
|
- Take rack-mount assemblage from a wheel arch.
|
|
Dismantling
Design of rack-mount assemblage of a forward suspension bracket
|
|
|
|
- Clamp a rack in a vice with soft sponges and on some turns release a nut of a piston rod of the shock-absorber, - do not remove a nut definitively.
|
|
|
- Clamp the bottom basis of rack-mount assemblage in a vice with soft sponges and by means of the special adaptation compress a screw spring.
|
- Turn away a nut of a piston rod and make rack dismantling.
|
|
Check
|
|
|
|
- Clamp the bottom part of the shock-absorber in a vice with soft sponges and manually check up smoothness and uniformity of a piston stroke of the shock-absorber in both directions.
|
- Having rocked a piston rod not less than three times, make sure of absence of signs of development of leaks.
- Visually estimate a condition of a screw spring.
- Check up on presence of damages the top cup and the bottom saddle of a spring, also estimate a condition of the top and bottom rubber insulators.
|
|
Assemblage
|
|
- Operating in an order, the return to a dismantle order, establish into place components of rack-mount assemblage, - track correctness of landing and - where it is required - input in gearing of all elements.
- Compress a screw spring and freely screw a nut of a piston rod.
- Clamp rack-mount assemblage in a vice with soft sponges and tighten a nut of a piston rod with demanded effort (37 ÷ 46 Nanometers).
|
|
Installation
|
|
- Installation is made in an order, the return to an order of dismantle of components, - track observance of requirements of Specifications of the Head the Suspension bracket and a steering to efforts of a tightening of carving fixture.
|
|
The definitive tightening of fixture of a rack is made after car lowering on the earth. |
- In summary drive away the car in a workshop of car-care centre for check and adjustment of corners of installation of forward wheels (the Section Check and adjustment of corners of installation of forward wheels see).
