General procedures

Precautions to the suspension system

Removal/installation of wheels and tires

1. The tightening torque in the installation of

wheels: 88-127N.m {9.0-13.0kgf.m,

65-94ft.lbf}.

Tightening of suspension system

1. All parts with the rubber bushings in the

suspension can be tightened only when the

vehicle has been laid down and is free of load.

No-load: fuel tank already filled up, engine

coolant and lubricant already reached to the

specified liquid level, spare tire jack and outfit

placed at a specified locations.

Connection or Cut-off of braking line

Attention: The brake fluid is likely to damage the

painted surface. If the brake fluid already got in

touch with the painted surfaces, it should be

immediately wiped up.

1. Tighten the brake cone nut by use of the SST,

confirm the tightening torque of adjusting

brake cone nut to ensure the combination use

of torque wrench and SST.

2. Add the brake fluid, exhaust residual gas from

the brake system if any of the braking lines is

disconnected in the process and check if there

is any leakage after the completion of

operation.

Removal/installation of power steering

component

1. If any of the power steering oil lines is

disconnected in the process, you should add

ATF M-Ⅲ or Dexron II, exhaust residual oil from

the oil lines and check if there is any leakage

after the completion of operation.

Wheel alignment

Preliminary inspection of wheel alignment

1. Check the tires inflation and adjust them to the

recommended pressure 210kPa as required.

2. Check the front bearing clearance and make the

necessary correction as needed (Refer to M

Check of Wheel Bearing Clearance).

3. Check the radial run-outs of wheels and tires.

4. Check whether there is any excessive looseness

of the ball pin and steering linkages.

5. Sway the bodywork to check the operation of

shock absorber.

Note: The vehicle must be of no-load and

positioned on a level ground.

No-load: fuel tank already filled up, engine

coolant and lubricant already reached to the

specified liquid level, spare tire jack and outfit

placed at a specified locations.

6. Measure the vertical height between the wheel

center and fender edge, the difference in the

measured values between the left and right sides

cannot exceed 10 mm{0.39 in}.

Adjustment of maximum steering angle

1. Unscrew the end lock nut of steering linkages;

2. Remove the clamp clip of steering dust cover;

3. Turn the steering tie rod, assuring that the

difference of tie rod length between the left and

right sides not exceed 3mm;

4. Evenly regulate the steering linkages to assure

the corresponding maximum steering angle;

5. Tighten the end locknut of steering linkages.

Tightening torque: 69-98N.m {7.0-10.0kgf.m,

50.7-72.3ft.lbf};

6. Confirm that the dust cover is not distorted,

and install the clamp of dust cover;

7. Adjust the toe-in after the steering angle

regulated.

Adjustment of caster angle /camber

1. Jack up with a jack the front part of vehicle and

hold it on a security platform;

2. Remove 4 nuts from the reinforced support.

3. Push downward the support bracket and turn it

the suitable position. The wheel camber and

kingpin caster angle of front suspension can be

adjusted at maximum within the angle in 30’.

Adjustment of total toe-in

1. Fix the steering wheel in the middle position

and be sure that the wheels face to the front.

2. Remove the clamp of steering dust cover.

3. Unscrew the lock nuts of R/L steering linkages,

and keep the equal rotation of tie rods at both

sides. The steering linkages at both sides are of

right-hand thread, thus, turn forward the right

steering linkage and the left steering linkage

rearward to increase the toe-in.

Note: make one full circle respectively for the

steering linkages. The toe-in changes ca. 6mm

(0º36′).

4. Tighten the lock nut of steering linkages as per

the specified torque;

Removal/installation of front shock absorber and spring

Attention:

Carry out the following procedures prior to the removal of ABS wheel speed sensor. If the sensor pulled by

inadvertence, it may result in break-circuit of harness. before carrying out the following procedure, remove

the ABS wheel sensor corresponding to the axle, and fix it in a suitable position to prevent the wheel sensor

from inadvertent drawing during the maintenance process.

1. Remove in the order as shown in the Table；

2. Install in the reversing order of removal；

3. Check the alignment of front wheels. If non-conform to the specified provision, adjust the alignment of

front wheels (Refer to R——Alignment of Front Wheels)

Essentials to the removal of piston rod nuts

Warning:

It is dangerous to remove the piston rod nuts. The

shock absorber and helical spring may pop up under

the effect of powerful pressure and cause serious

personnel injury and death. Prior to the removal of

piston rod nuts, be sure that the shock absorber is

installed inside the SST.

1. Protect with a piece of fabric, the helical spring,

and then install the SST.

2. Use the SST to compress the helical spring and

remove the piston rod nuts.

Essentials to the installation of helical spring

1. Install at first the lower rubber mat of helical

spring on the shock absorber;

2. After the helical spring, stop block, dust cover,

upper rubber mat of helical spring and upper

spring seat have been placed in a proper place,

place the bearing on the upper spring seat and

put in the upper support of shock absorber；

3. Protect with a piece of fabric the helical spring

and then set up the SST.

4. Compress the helical spring by use of the SST.

6. Install the shock absorber and be sure that the

opening of helical spring is aligned with the

stair of spring seat retainer on the shock

absorber and the hole on the upper spring seat

aligned with that at the outer edge of lower

spring seat on the shock absorber.

7. As shown in Fig. install the upper support of

shock absorber and piston rod nuts and then

remove the SST;

Tightening torques of piston rod nuts:

78.4-109.8 N.m {8-11.2 kgf.m, 57.8-81 Ft.lbf}

Statement:

1. Align the positioning mark point on the upper

support of shock absorber with the rear

direction inside the bodywork mounting

location and then install the shock absorber.

Essentials to the installation of front damping

column assembly

The upper support of shock absorber uses different

colors of positioning mark points as the function to

prevent the error in the R/L installations (Green to

the left; white to the right). In the installation, be

sure that the positioning mark point is located inside

the rear direction to assure that the parameters of

4W alignment have not larger deviation.

Check of front damping column assembly

1. Remove the front damping column assembly

from the vehicle;

2. Check whether there is any appearance damage

and any oil leakage on the shock absorber.

3. Check whether the lower rubber mat of helical

spring and upper rubber mat of helical spring

are ageing and worn.

4. Disassemble the damping column assembly.

5. Compress and stretch the shock absorber piston

for at least three times and confirm that the

Upper spring upper seat

operating force has not changed and no

abnormal noise exists;

(1) Compress the shock absorber piston and then

release it.

(2) Confirm that the extended piston returned to

the normal position at a normal speed and there

is no abnormal compression force.

6. If non-conform to the requirements, replace the

shock absorber.

Scrap Disposal of front shock- absorber

Warning:

Once boring on the shock absorber, you should wear

safety goggles, because the high pressure gas in the

shock absorber is likely to inject the metal scrap into

your eyes and face during the boring

1. Lay the shock absorber or keep the piston rod

facing downward and clamp the shock absorber

2. Bore a hole in 2-3 mm {0.08-0.12 in} at

20-30mm {0.8-1.2 in} away from the bottom

of tube to leak gas out.

3. Face the hole downward;

4. Push and draw the piston rod, saw the casing

pipe at the bottom of shock absorber and

collect the oil from the pipe.

5. Handle waste oil according to the Waste

Disposal Regulations.

Note: The gas used by the shock absorber is the

nitrogen and the oil used by the shock absorber is

the mineral oil.
