a final tightening of the nuts of all joint couplings and the leaf-
spring U-bolt nuts on the vehicle, standing on the wheels. This
ensures normal working condition of the joints and decreases
wear. The tightening torques of the threaded couplings are shown
in Appendix 2.
During installation of the front suspension spring, check that
the springs are installed precisely in their seats, and as required,
turn the spring seat, on which the upper end of the spring is
leaned around the axis in one way or another.
When removing the suspension compression buffers and their
re-installation, ensure the safety of their lock by using thread
sealant compound or lock washers.
Wheels and tires
WArnInG! Tires of various models (tread patterns) may have
different sizes and stiffness characteristics, use identical tires on all
wheels.
To provide uniform tightening of the nuts, tighten them
alternatively, — every second one.
Check inflation pressure in cold tires.
If intensive uneven wear of the front wheel tire is detected,
check and adjust the toe-in of the front wheels and the gaps in
the pins units.
