Note. When installing you will need a new bolt and nut securing the upper arm to the subframe.
Withdrawal
1. Remove suspension spring (see paragraph 12).
2. Turn out a bolt of fastening of the trailing arm to cross (pic. 14.2). Note the location of the bolt.
3. Support the final drive unit with a jack (see chapter 8). Turn out bolts of fastening of the main transfer that the knot could be moved at removal of an axial bolt. Alternative method - remove the drive shaft (see chapter 8).
4. Turn away a nut of an axial bolt connecting the cross-section lever with a subframe. Remove the bolt by moving the final drive assembly slightly back and remove the transverse arm from the vehicle (pic. 14.4). Keep in mind that on some models the driveshaft must be disconnected to do this.
Note. If you removed the lever indefinitely, insert it back and securely tighten the final drive mounting bolts.
Repair
5. Thoroughly clean the lever and the area around the fasteners. Remove all traces of dirt and sealant. Check for damage, wear, paying special attention to the support bushings. If the bushings need to be replaced, take it to a specialized service station as this job requires a hydraulic press and a set of spacer bushings (for pressing new bushings).
6. Inspect the bolts for damage or wear. Replace bolts if necessary. The bolt and nut securing the arm to the subframe must be replaced regardless of their condition.
Installation
7. Install the lever in place, insert a new axial bolt securing the lever to the subframe and tighten the nut. Don't tighten the nut just yet.
8. Establish into place the main transfer and tighten bolts of its fastening the demanded moment. Connect the cardan shaft to the main gear (if it was detached).
9. Paste (behind) Bolt of fastening of the top arm to the trailing arm, screw (but don't over tighten) nut.
10. Install suspension spring (see paragraph 12).
11. Upon completion of assembly, lower the vehicle to the ground and shake it so that the suspension units are installed in the working position. Tighten the wheel bolts, the shock absorber lower support bolt and the transverse arm axle bolts to the required torque.
Note. Upon completion of work, check and, if necessary, adjust the angles of the rear wheels.
