The lower arm.
The pressing-out and press-fitting of the joint
can be carried out on a press, using tool 67.7823.9526, and also
with tool 67.7823.9517 (fig. 4-12), which is installed on the arm
so that the head of the tool screw was directed inside. Tighten the
tool screw to press out the joint.
For press fitting, insert the joint into the arm bezel and fit tool
67.7823.9517 (fig. 4-13) complete with cap 3. By tightening the
fixture screw, press fit the joint in the arm bezel.
Rear suspension
The design of the rear suspension is shown on fig. 4-14.
Suspension removal and refitting
Removal.
Lift the rear part of the vehicle and place it on sup-
ports. Take off the rear wheels.
Disconnect the propeller shaft from the final drive gear
flange.
Disconnect the hose of the brake hydraulic system from the
steel tube on the axle, and make arrangements to prevent liquid
leaking from the brake system.
Disconnect the handbrake rear cable brackets from the
body, remove the front cable return spring, and after undoing the
locknut and the adjusting nut, release the rear cable. Disconnect
from the bracket on the axle beam the tie-rod 13 (see fig. 4-14)
of the rear brake pressure regulator drive. Disconnect the top
ends of shock-absorbers 25.
Put under the rear axle beam a hydraulic jack. Disconnect
the longitudinal 3 and 17 and transverse 24 arms from brackets
on the body, lower the jack and remove the axle.
Start to dismantle the suspension:
- remove the shock-absorbers from the brackets on the axle
beam;
- disconnect the longitudinal and transverse arms from the
brackets on the axle beam.
The rear suspension components are shown on fig. 4-15.
The rear suspension refitting
is carried out in reverse
sequence. On the rear suspension the springs of the same class,
as on the front suspension, should be installed. In exceptional
cases, if the springs of A class (not marked or with marks by
white paint on the external side of coils) are installed on the front
suspension, and there are no springs of the same class available
