Front A-arm bracket installation
WARNING
1.
The vehicle must be
immobilized
; the
engine turned off
and cooled.
2.
Always wear
safety glasses
during installation, adjustment or repair.
3.
Please read and ensure you
have understood the warnings
and guidelines.
4.
Make sure the vehicle is
safely
secured in place by a system dedicated to this use (jack stands and hoist) and that it is supported or fixed
on locations that are not likely to break, bend or slip. A hydraulic jack is not safe, nor is a log. The vehicle must not be able to move.
The installation requires that the vehicle is in two-wheel drive
mode with the gearbox in neutral. After lifting the vehicle and
removing the wheels:
1) Remove the universal joint guard. Keep the parts for later
reinstallation.
2) Insert the M12-1.75 X 65-mm carriage screw
G
in the hole
identified by a label on the A-arm bracket
01
. See
figure 2.
In the packaging, this screw is mounted on the rod end
M
of the anti-rotation arm.
3) Lean the A-arm bracket
01
under the front lower
suspension arm taking care that the suspension table
tubes are firmly pressed down on the half-moon support
brackets of the A-arm bracket.
4) Fix the A-arm bracket to suspension arm using the front
clamping plate
02
, the M12-1.75 X 70-mm carriage bolt
04
and the M12-1.75 nylon nut
06
.
5) Place the M8 U-bolt
03
and fix it in place using an M8 flat
washer
07
(place the washer in the oblong hole side) and
the two (2) M8-1.25 nylon nuts
05
.
6) Ensure that the A-arm bracket is well positioned in the
half-moon support brackets and tighten all nuts in place.
WARNING
1.
Do not overtorque the bolts
. Some parts may be subject to deformations. If the bolts are too tight, safety aspects could be
compromised.
2.
Be careful: an incorrectly positioned A-arm bracket could give some play, which could make driving riskier as well as lead to breakage
to the vehicle, a loss of control and serious injuries.
