Loosen the wheel nuts before lifting the vehicle, and loosen the wheel hub nut if the suspension is to be disassembled.
Raise the car and remove the wheel. Unscrew the brake caliper and hang it on a wire to the body so as not to disconnect the brake hose.
Unscrew the self-locking nut from the tie rod joint and disconnect the joint with a puller from the steering knuckle.
Turn away bolts of fastening of a flange of a power shaft.
Loosen the suspension arm-to-subframe bolt and the subframe-to-body bolt.
From the rear shoulder of the suspension arm, unscrew the bolt accessible from below. Using pliers, pull the metal sleeve out of the rubber sleeve. Without removing the sleeve, it is impossible to remove the lever located between the plate welded to the bottom of the body and the subframe.
From the bottom of the lever, unscrew the nut securing the stabilizer lever, if installed in the car.
The upper part of the spring struts is attached to the body elements in the engine compartment. Loosen the nut securing the upper part of the shock absorber while holding the shock absorber rod from turning. Hold the strut, as it may fall out after unscrewing the shock absorber mounting nut.
Lower the strut down and disconnect the suspension arm from the subframe. Remove the support from the top of the rack.
During installation, insert the post into the hole in the upper mounting and immediately tighten the nut with your fingers.
Place the front part of the lever in the eye of the subframe, and the rear part between the plates in the subframe. Place a new metal bushing as deep as possible into the rubber bushing.
Insert a suitable rod into the hole of the lever to install it on the axis of the threaded hole inside the subframe. Screw in the bolts, tightening them only by hand.
Screw the bolt into the rear support of the lever from below and also tighten it only by hand.
Tighten the spring strut mounting nut on the side of the engine compartment with a torque of 60 Nm, while holding the shock absorber rod from unscrewing. Connect the stabilizer arm.
Connect the drive shaft to the gearbox and tighten the bolts one by one to 45 Nm.
Attach the tie rod end to the steering knuckle arm. It is necessary to use a new self-locking nut, which is tightened with a torque of 35 Nm. Install the wheels and lower the vehicle to the ground. To tighten the suspension arm mounting bolts, the vehicle must be in running order (without load) mounted with front wheels on a flyover.
Tighten both lever mounting bolts (accessible from the side and bottom) torque of 120 Nm. After lowering the vehicle, tighten the drive shaft flange nut to 230 Nm. The wheel nuts are tightened with a torque of 110 Nm.
