Section F (Front Suspension)
To renew threaded cyebolt bush (Fig. 14)
The threaded bush is externally knurled at one end,
and pressed in with the knurling to the front on
new cars. It follows that the bush must be pressed
out towards the front of the trunnion assembly, I.e.,
the reverse way to which it went In, as otherwise
the knurling will damage the parent bore of the
trunnion.
When a new bush Is fitted in service, It must be
pressed in from the rear end of the trunnion, with
the knurling to the rear, so that the knurling
engages a plain portion of the parent bore.
Reassemble stub axle to upper and lower links as
previously described, using new thrust and sealing
washers.
Before fitting the lower eye bolt, place the sealing
rings (28) on the bosses of the trunnion, one each
side; when the eye bolt is properly located, the
rings can be slid outwards along the bosses into
position. If these sealing rings show any signs of
deterioration, they should be renewed.
The eye bolt must be screwed In from the rear
until the shoulder of the bolt butts firmly against
the front inner face of its link, but care must be
taken to ensure that the arms of the link are not
stressed by "spreading".
The locknut (29) must be fitted before the castel
lated nut, and tightened very securely, at the same
time holding the
eye
bolt (25) from turning.
The castellated nut (30) should be tightened to
the figure given In the "General Data Section".
When the castellatlons do not align with the split
pin hole, tighten the nut to the next castellation.
SERVICE REPLACEMENT SWIVEL PINS
Stub axle, to renew lower swivel pin
As the design of the stub axle and swivel pin calls
for a very high degree of interference fit, It Is
essential that a press, having a ·capacity of at least
ten tons, Is available. A special service swivel pin
pack P.48890 Is supplied, In which the clrcllp Is
replaced by two locknuts.
