9.1.5. Rack and spring of a suspension bracket
Details of a rack of a forward suspension bracket (the device of a rack of a back suspension bracket is similar)
1. Top basic cup 2. Bearing 3. Top saddle 4. Spring buffer 5. Top insulating casing of a spring 6. Lower insulating laying of a spring 7. Spring

8. Suspension bracket shock-absorber 9. Conducting of the sensor of speed of ABS system 10. Draft of the stabilizer 11. Brake hose 12. Rack assembled |
If strong indications of wear or damage of a rack or a spring are found (dribble of liquid, a cage of springs, external damages, etc.), then it is necessary to resolve an issue of expediency of dismantling. The rack with the shock-absorber is not subject to repair and changes assembled.
Dismantling
PERFORMANCE ORDER |
1. Remove a rack. Clamp the lower part of a rack in a vice through wooden laying. |
|
2. Squeeze a spring by means of adaptation so that to take off pressure upon the top basic cup of a spring (it is checked by rocking of the top plate). |
Prevention
At removal of a spring use the special device for compression of a spring. You store the removed compressed spring in the safe place.
|
|
3. Turn off a shock-absorber rod nut. |
|
4. Turn off a nut and remove a cup of the top support of a rack. Check a condition of the bearing of a cup. If the bearing jams at rotation, then replace a cup. Check integrity of rubber laying of a cup, existence on it of cracks and signs of wear. If rubber destruction is found, then replace laying. |
|
5. Remove the top saddle of a spring. Check existence on a saddle of cracks and hardenings. If necessary replace. Remove the top insulating casing of a spring. |
|
6. Carefully remove the compressed spring. |
7. Remove the rubber buffer. |
8. Check a condition of the lower insulating laying, if necessary replace. |
|
Assembly
PERFORMANCE ORDER |
1. If changes lower, then establish it into place so that the ledge on laying was turned down and came into deepening on the lower cup of a rack. |
|
2. Establish a spring so that the termination of the last round came into deepening on lower insulating to laying. |
|
3. Establish the top insulating casing and a saddle of a spring, having combined at the same time lysk on a shock-absorber rod with saddle opening sides. |
|
4. Combine a tag of OUT of the top saddle of a spring with a tag on the top insulating casing. |
|
5. At assembly of a rack of a forward suspension bracket be convinced that the arrow on a saddle is turned outside (1 – outside). |
|
6. At assembly of a rack of a back suspension bracket orient the top basic cup according to a photo. |
7. Establish a sealant and the top cup on a rack. |
8. Wrap a nut of fastening of the top cup and tighten with the set moment. Simite adaptation squeezing a spring. |
9. Install a rack on the car. |
