Auto Tech Advice Center – How do shock absorbers for your car Change

Filed Under (Remote Starters Articles) by admin on 14-03-2010

Worn or damaged shock absorbers is dangerous, which is checked regularly. Worn shock absorbers allow the wheels to bounce and body to the role and place. Tire wear is exacerbated by the uneven running and braking errors are significantly reduced because of the band of contact pad is insufficient.

Here are some important points to look for:

Loose or damaged fittings

Make sure that the conclusion is sturdy, the rubber is not missing and that all boltsis narrow. The skokbreker do its work unless it is well established.

Leaking skokbreker

Depending on who tells the story smears on the device. Sure that comes from skokbreker lot and not just thrown out of the way oliebak or transmission.

TEST METHOD

When a test machine is not available an approximate indication of the state, shock absorbers can be obtained by the following method:

Bounce each corner of the car several timestransition to the bottom of the race. Every corner of the return to the top of its travel and then the rest in its normal position. If it bounces more than it skokbreker replaced.

If the car is difficult or impossible to fire so skokbreker probably confiscated or has a bent piston rod, perhaps due to a defective mounting bracket. Always use the right tool for each task, it can never be thirty and forty. Installation Skokbreker is no difference. NextWhat will the installation is much simpler:

· Spring Compressor

· Caliper brake hose

· Terminal display Strut

Torque Wrench · There are three main types of dampers, ie wet and strut the strut is sealed and telescopes.

See the manual for the type of vehicle.

1. Repairing a NAT Strut

Here are the steps for the restoration cap wet.

Step 1 Loosen the nut and loosen the piston rod travel o9nethe right key dimension of the socket. Relaxation wielmoere. Jack the car and make a mark on a lot of bolts and the rim before you remove the wheel. Axis is U.S. security.

Phase 2 terminal of the coil spring with a spring compressor. Brake hose attachment and remove the spring, disconnect the brake fittings, brake fluid does not flow because it is corrosive.

Step 3 Stop the steering arm from the strut by removing the screws. Remove the three nuts and mark themposition. Now, remove the cap, with the assembly of the brakes by lifting it out.

Step 4 To change to a workbench and remove the old internal parts. Tighten the strut strut in a vise, compress the spring until it moves freely, and remove the piston rod nut. Note: The location of parts removed, so that they can be in the right order, will be replaced.

Step 5 Use the right key size, remove the screw gland, make sure that it may have to be recycled. Featuregland and screws to assemble the focus inside. Delete the old operation and try to be compatible with the new to add.

Step 6 Drain the oil and discard. Clean the tubes and wires with a solvent. Fill the tube with the necessary quantity of oil or SAE 30 or a suitable equivalent. The new line can slide into place.

Step 7 Carefully screw back into the gland and attach it to the correct specification. Ensure that the new office is located permanently inglass and make sure that the piston rod is centered with the right amount of exposed wire. First unit of good for the circulation of the oil.

Step 8 Adjust the seat with the spring cavity. Lubricate bearings. Turn the nut high enough to ensure the meeting. The unit is now the vehicle is installed.

Step 9 Once positioned securely, the first three nuts securely to the correct specification is strengthened. Put the arm increases steer knuckle and strutStem need to set specifications. Replace the dust cap.

Step 10 Connect the brake hose assembly and replacement of years. Replace the wheel, make sure that the meeting points are related. The lower the vehicle and increases wielmoere.

Step 11 Bleed brake pressure. It is recommended that the tire pressure and wheel alignment checked and the test engine. The wet, saddle restoration is now complete.

REPLACING A SEALED Strut

Here are the steps to the frontsealed strut replaced:

Phase 1 The process that this phase is identical to strut sealed as it was before the wet, so we can go directly to disconnect the brake hose. Clamp tubing, remove the spring and disconnect the brake hose.

Step 2 Note the position of the cam adjustment by making a notch on the bottom bracket. Support for the suspension of an outlet to prevent the escape. Remove the two screws securely. The strut can be removed from the sealedsteering knuckles, and should be revoked.

Step 3 On a workbench clamp strut the strut in a vise and compress the spring until it moves freely. Remove the nut at the top and exposed to the components noted their position. Remove the old strut the strut clamp and compare it with the new entity. Now place the new entity the clamp saddle.

Step 4 Ensure that the new unit is well founded and carefully replace the components in the proper order, checking them for wear or damage. Ensurethe spring is in line with the seat lower house. "Out" markings stamped on the upper spring seat must be outside the vehicle. Turn the nut high enough to ensure the composite plate.

Step 5 Remove the spring compressor, the strut is sealed ready for any adjustments. Rotate the three dice for the correct specification. Replace the steering knuckle to the bottom bracket. Apply oil to bolt threads and on the back. Adjust the cam adjustment onSteering knuckle with a notch indicated above the lower end and tighten the nuts on demand. Finally, the specifications of the piston rod nut pair of producer and replace the dust cap. Connect the brake fittings and replace the spring. Bleed brake pressure and it is recommended that the tire pressure and wheel alignment checked and the test engine.

2. Replacing a silencer TELESCOPIC

Skokbreker mount a telescopic rod is veryeasier mounting a stiff wet or sealed. But there's always the small things, but important to remember. Do not forget to lubricate jack, use a lubricant, rubber, not oil. For applications parade, top should be installed completely shut when the total weight of the car is on wheels.

And remember that the connectors do not overtighten. By fitting the shocks are adjustable shock absorbers to adjust the instructions on the package (4 settings). General comments: for the fruits which are used to removeLoctite penetrating oil. Not burn away. Nuts with a stubborn Nutcracker "and the rest of the work, always the right tool to use. Before installing the new drive, make sure it is right for the vehicle.

First the unit before it is finished, and all the components to be replaced before the monitor – if you are old and worn to be replaced. Not taken the piston rod with a pin and a positioning unit in a vise, were wounded.

I hope this helps if you need articalemodify or repair the shock absorbers on your car alone.
