It is desirable to examine in detail all elements of the suspension, to assess their condition. When compared with front-wheel drive cars, on “classics” of suspension is made much easier due to the fact that the springs and dampers work together, but the attachment they have various. You can, for example, to remove and replace the shock absorber. The dismantling of the spring is not required.

Design Features

Some motorists with replacement springs VAZ, try to choose a long or short instances. The degree of development of the all different, so some individuals, especially without going into details, just cut the springs, shortening them for a few turns. Of course, this is wrong – the whole suspension is immediately broken. This affects the functioning of the shock absorber, even for the convenience of management.

Significantly reduced the resource of the suspension. But installing longer springs will give the car the advantage. It is reasonable to do only in those cases if the vehicle is operated in extreme conditions, his suspension is constantly loaded. When handling even steel springs SAG, which affects the convenience of control. So sometimes you need to diagnose the suspension and replace worn parts.

Oil consumption in the engine. Six reasons

It is Hardly possible to find a motorist who would not be worried about the increased oil consumption. It is especially annoying when it happens with another new motor. Here are the most common causes that result in the consumption of oil in the engi...

  1. There are mechanical damages on the spring defects. Failure is determined by visual inspection. It is advisable to do this on a viewing hole or overpass.
  2. Significant reduction in the length of the springs. You can define a reduced clearance of the machine. Most often, the spring drawdown occurs, if the machine carries heavy loads or tows a trailer. The same situation with the vehicles used in a taxi.

In these two cases require replacement of suspension components. By themselves, the springs do not break. This happens solely due to the accident of the raids on the borders, there is a domestic marriage.

What to do?

In that case, if you find a broken spring on seven, do not put off repairs. If you don't make it on time, then the chain will start the destruction of the other suspension components that will only make repairs more expensive. It is recommended that all work be done in pairs – if on the front axle one spring has failed, and the second more or less “live”, you need to change both. Only in this case you will maximize the effectiveness of the suspension.

In the case of damage to the springs no, but there is a drawdown, you can install spacers. But to get involved in such modifications is not recommended, as deteriorating characteristics of the car. Increases the chance to go into a skid, the braking distance also becomes longer. As for comfort, he suffers too. And domestic cars such as the VAZ-2107 and so overwhelming. And if you hurt the mitigation of impacts on the body, the driver with passengers will lose all his teeth.

Preparing to replace

Before you begin work to replace the springs on the VAZ-2107, you'll need to complete some preparatory steps. Be sure to take the entire tool, in particular a device to compress the springs.

All work can be done on a viewing hole or overpass, or on a flat surface. You will need to perform such manipulations are:

  1. Put the car in the pit. Preferably, the absorber was nothing – it has to be removed.
  2. Loosen the bolts of fastening of wheels.
  3. Lift the car on a Jack and remove the wheel.
  4. For removal of the shock absorber need to Unscrew the nuts on the upper and lower mounts. Don't lose the rubber gaskets and metal washers. If they have a normal state, that can be reused.
  5. Loosen the nuts securing the lower arm to the axle, but do not remove them.
  6. Load the suspension setting under the lower arm of the second Jack. Only in this case will be able to remove the stabilizer.

Almost all manipulations are made, we can only fully remove the spring from the vehicle.

Removing spring

On both sides of the car removal of the springs is the same. When replacing the front springs VAZ, you need to have on hand a minimum set of tools. Obligatory ties – not to do without it. Next steps:

  1. Set opposite each other and screed to evenly compress the spring.
  2. The Key to “10” Unscrew the nuts that secure the pillow of the stabilizer.
  3. Completely remove the cushion and stabilizer bracket.
  4. Loosen the fasteners of the lower ball joint to the lever.
  5. Put a second Jack mounted under the lever. After the lever is lowered, you can remove the spring.

It makes No sense to vypressovyvaniem the ball stud from the steering knuckle – exercise is very difficult and requires a puller. Much easier would beremove the three bolts that the clip is fixed to the lever. The spring thus needs to be maximally compacted. Definitely from the top of the Cup remove the spacer. If it has damage or deformation, it should be changed.

  3. On top of using electrical tape secure the rubber spacer.
  4. After you install new springs to gently pry the lower control arm with a Jack.
