Remove the wheel. Remove the coil spring. Remove the hub bearing assembly. Remove the shield. Remove the ABS speed sensor from the hub bearing housing. Unscrew the bolt "arrow".
Unscrew the bolts securing the upper transverse arm "2" and lower transverse arm "3" from the hub bearing housing "4". Unscrew the bolt securing the stabilizer bar "arrow" from the hub bearing housing.
Fix the hub bearing housing and unscrew the bolts "arrows". Remove the stabilizer bar pin "1" from the trailing arm.
Installation
Tightening the bolts securing the trailing arm to the hub bearing housing is only possible after installing all other suspension components (the spring and shock absorber must be installed). Before tightening the bolts, it is necessary to set the suspension to the position corresponding to the maximum rebound stroke. Only in this case the longitudinal lever and the hub bearing housing will be set to the required "arrow" position. During further work, it is necessary to strictly adhere to the prescribed sequence of operations!
Screw in the bolts securing the transverse tie rod "1", the upper transverse arm "2" and the lower transverse arm "3", without tightening these bolts completely. Hand tighten the bolt securing the stabilizer bar link "arrow" to the wheel bearing housing "4". Screw in the bolts "arrows" and insert the stabilizer bar link "1" into the longitudinal arm. Tighten the bolt "arrow" securing the shock absorber. Tighten the threaded connections securing the suspension elements to the wheel bearing housing only after installing the suspension in the position corresponding to dimension "a"! Install the coil spring. Tighten the bolts securing the transverse tie rod of the upper transverse arm "2" and the lower transverse arm "3". Tighten the nut "arrow" securing the stabilizer bar. Tighten the screws "arrows". Install the shield. Install the hub bearing unit. Install the speed sensor for the ABS system in the wheel bearing housing. Install the brake disc. Install the bracket and brake caliper. Install the wheel and tighten the mounting bolts.
