What is the stabilizer bushings in the car. How to replace the stabilizer bushings front and rear? Step-by-step instructions for self-replacement

If the cross-stabilizer bushings failed in the suspension, it is unlikely to be called a critical breakdown that requires immediate repair. Because of this breakdown, the car will not lose controllability and wheels do not fall off. But in order to ride a car with broken sleeves, the driver will need very strong nerves. Because the knock and grinds, which appeared due to worn out sleeves, will be heard in any cabin. In this article we will tell the reader about how to make a replacement of the bush transverse stability in passenger cars both domestic and foreign production.

Functions of the bushings of the transverse stability stabilizer

In most modern machines The transverse stability stabilizer is a mandatory suspension element. When the car enters the turn, its roll increases, and it can overturn under the action of centrifugal force. When the car comes out of turn, its body begins to swing, which makes it difficult to align the trajectory of the movement. As a result, stabilizers of transverse stability appeared in the pendants of the machines to prevent unwanted swinging. The stabilizer is attached to the suspension with steel brackets, under which there are elastic sleeves made of polyurethane (or from particularly dense rubber). Their appointment is to extinguish the suspension vibration and direct the stabilizer bar at the entrance to the rotation and when driving around the uneven road.

Signs of wear

• Strong creak arising when driving on an uneven road. When entering at a high speed, this creak goes into a gnash.
• Stabilizer's backlash rod. He manifests itself in the form of a deaf impact, which is heard when the front wheel of the machine simultaneously fall into a deep thunder on the road.

Causes of breakdown

• Physical deterioration. Most cars (especially domestic) are initially equipped with rubber transverse sleeves, which is small. After 2-3 years, they fully produce their resource, are covered by cracks and fall apart (for this reason, foremost car owners immediately change the rubber bushings into polyurethane).
• Chemical impact. Since the sleeves are located close to the wheels, antigenic chemicals are regularly falling on, the impact of which significantly reduces the service life of rubber sleeves.
• Mechanical impact. If the car is constantly operated on the roads, the quality of which leaves much to be desired, even reliable polyurethane bushings will not last long (since in such conditions there are an increased friction force on them and they are constantly subjected to strong shocks).

Which bushings to choose

Choosing new stabilizer bushings, preference should be given to polyurethane products. Often car enthusiasts stop their choice on Sasic, 555 and TRW bushings.

Tools and consumables

1. A set of new bushings of transverse stability stabilizer.
2. Set of horn keys.
3. Shutter flat (medium size).
4. Set of end heads with gate.
5. 2 jacks.
6. Anti-type shoes.

Replacement sequence on VAZ 2107

1. The car is installed on watching pitAfter that, the crankcase protection is removed using horked keys (if installed). Then under the rear wheels of the car are led by the anti-cancer shoes, and the front wheels are subdominated.
2. Now the nuts on the brackets, where they are attached to the lower pendant lever are unscrewed by the front key. This is done on both sides of the stabilizer bar. Under the nuts are washers-engravers. They are removed manually.
   Nuts are shown arrows
3. Now you can remove the brackets. After their removal, you can remove bushings. To remove the rod of the stabilizer, it is rejected by scrap. The rod is kept scrap, the bushing is removed manually. The bushing on the other hand is removed similarly.
   This uses scrap
4. In addition to the two extreme sleeves on the VAZ 2107 there are a pair of central stabilizer bushings. If you need to replace them, you will have to completely remove the stabilizer bar, which is attached on two brackets. Nuts on the brackets are unscrewed by a horn key by 14.
5. After removing the rod, the bracket is clamping into vice, and the rod is neatly removed from the sleeve, then the central sleeve itself is removed.
   The sleeve is inside the bracket, clamped in vice
6. Worn bushings are replaced by new ones, after which the rod of the stabilizer and the crankcase protection are installed on regular places.

Important moments

• When unscrewed nuts on brackets, caution should be taken: the studs on which the brackets are attached, over time become fragile, and easily broken by a wheelbarrow key.
• It should be remembered: the staples holding the extreme sleeves are different, although it is not always possible to see it with a naked eye. The distance between the holes for the studs in the left and right braces is characterized by 3 mm. Therefore, before removal, it makes sense to mark the staples with a marker or chalk so as not to confuse them when reverse assembly.
• Extract the stabilizer bar from the bracket is not easy, especially if it rusty strongly. To facilitate the task, the bar and the bracket should be abundantly lubricated with WD-40 liquid. If there is no fluid at hand, the liquid means for washing dishes or ordinary soap water.

If we compare the device for transverse stability stabilizers on domestic cars and foreign cars, it can be noted that on our cars to get to the stabilizer bushings a little more complicated. If on Mitsubishi Pajero. 4 To replace the sleeves, it is enough to unscrew several bolts, and it is possible to do this in any garage, then, in the case of the "seven", I will need scrap and observation pit. However, with due patience, the breakdown is quite possible to eliminate on their own.

To connect and normal operation of various automotive mechanisms, they establishes a large number of different sleeves and rubber pads. However, these elements have a very short service life, since in conditions of intensive operation, they are very quickly wearing, the backlays are formed. As a result, the operation of the car becomes unsafe, followed by wear of the bushings there may be very serious breakdowns. All this also applies to rubber bushings, which are installed on the stabilizer. Therefore, if during the operation of the car you heard the elastic knock in the front of it - know you threaten the replacement of the stabilizer gum. How to do this - read in our article.

1. Where are the gum or stabilizer bushings?

If the stabilizer gum is worn out and the backlash has been formed in them, you will tell you a clearly pronounced sound that manifests itself during operation. car Engine (and to be more accurate, then with each turn). It is especially noticeable, it is manifested when the car drives one wheel to a small hill or accidentally falls into the pit. Then the driver can hear a very strong sound from the contact of the metal parts, between which there is no rubber gasket.

On the usual car stabilizer there are four rubber bushings. Find them on this mechanism is not difficult. Two of them can be very easy to find and remove: they are under fastening brackets that form something like a cover or "house" for them. Two more should be sought in metal holders.

The main function that the stabilizer gum is performed is the execution of the role of elastic gasket between the barbell and the fastening elements of the stabilizer. Thanks to them, the level of vibrations is reduced, oscillations arising during movement are softened. In addition, the presence of sleeves helps extend the service life of the stabilizer bar, and also make it completely silent. It is for this reason that it is very important that all bushings are working and could fully fulfill the "responsibilities" entrusted to them.

As a result of the wear of rubber bushings, the stabilizer details are possible to carry out practically free move. If the body during the movement is a bit bent and its transverse displacement is obtained, the stabilizer begins to knock. In this case, you will most likely have to replace the light grapple sleeves that are under the shelter of the fastener brackets. These rubber bands are most often wearing, in connection with which there is a need to replace them.

2. What is needed to replace worn car stabilizer bushings?

Tools for the implementation of such work will be needed quite a bit, but they need to prepare them in advance so that during the work they were all at hand. So you will need:

1. Caid key (10 and 13).

2. The end heads (will be suitable for 13 and at 14, but it is best if the head on 13 is extended).

3. Ratchet key.

4. Extension.

5. Schunzirkul (instead you can use a conventional ruler).

6. Cardan.

7. Jack.

But it should be immediately noted that not in all cases it is possible to do the presence of only such a simple set of tools. The fact is that in the process of replacing rubber sleeves, you will definitely have to unscrew the mounting nuts of the stabilizer racks. Here you can comprehend one very unpleasant discovery: the nuts are bought to the body of the part and are not amenable to the usual key. In such a situation, the case can reach the fact that you will have to use a grinder or hacksaw. After that, together with the replacement of the stabilizer gum, you will also need new racks of this part.

And about what you need. With it, you will need to raise the car to remove the wheels from it and get free access to the stabilizer and its bushing. He may also need if, during the work of the work of the bar, the stabilizer suddenly went to the side, and you can not return it to the right position with a scrap. In such a situation with the help of a jack, you just need to raise the back of the car, after which the rod should be in place.

Well, of course, to replace the stabilizer gum, you need the gum themselves. You can buy them on any car market or in a car shop. However, you should not forget that almost for each car model needed their sleeves that will be perfect for its stabilizer. Therefore, before you go for the purchase of new bushings, it is best to climb under the car and remove the old ones. With them, it is worth going to the store. In this case, you reduce to a minimum, the likelihood of buying too large or too small sleeves.

In addition, the quality of the gum for the stabilizer has no less important. It is known that they can be made from both natural rubber and artificial. Despite the fact that natural has higher indicators of such characteristics as softness and elasticity, still artificial rubber is considered more durable.

3. How to change the gum of the stabilizer with your own hands?

Well, if everything is ready, we can proceed to the direct implementation of our task - replacing the stabilizer gum. It is very simple to make it, but before starting work it is recommended to install the car in such a way that all its wheels are on the same level. Thanks to this, the rod of the stabilizer will be in the desired position. All further actions are recommended to be performed according to the instructions below:

1. Fix the car in a fixed position - raise the handbrake and block the movement of the wheels.

2. Remove the front wheels from the car, having previously lifted the car with the help of a jack. Under the right arch front wheel You will also need to remove the rear panel designed to protect the engine. To perform this action, you will need a key to 10, with which you can unscrew the two fasteners.

3. Using a special lubricant (it is better to take a special WD-40 aerosol) process with the left and with right side Fastening bolts, with which the stabilizer clamps are attached. It is also necessary to process its fastening racks.

4. We are fastened, with which the stabilizer racks are recorded. To do this, you will need to find four bolts and unscrew them with a suitable key. In the event that you cannot reach the bolts, use the end heads. If they still do not succumb - it will have to take for a grinder or a file. As a result, you must completely remove both racks of the car stabilizer.

5. Under the left side of the car's subframe, you need to install a jack. The distance from the Domkrat to its back should not exceed 20 cm. After that, we raise the jack of the car body. In the event that a hydraulic jack is used, it is necessary to put a dense metal plate under its resistant part. Thanks to this, you will be able to avoid damage to the subframe.

6. Using the key, we will unscrew the rear bolt to which the subframe is attached. Since the car is in a raised position, it will be very simple.

7. We let go of the jack so that the car falls on the same level as if he stood on the wheel. At the same time, the subframe should fall at a distance within 1 cm from the body.

8. In this space between the body and subframe, it is necessary to insert the trim of the pipe, pressing on which you can press the subframe from the car body. When you manage to zoom in this clearance, insert the end head into it. But act very carefully, since the subframe can jump at any time and literally cut your fingers. Therefore, the head must be layered with pliers.

9. We unscrew the bolts that fasten the clamp of the stabilizer, having previously sprinkled with the WD-40 aerosol thread. You need to unscrew the screws very carefully, in no case should you apply too much effort to them so as not to damage other details.

10. After the fastening bolts are removed, you can remove the claw claw, and then the sleeve itself, which is unusable for further operation.

11. We set a new one to the place of the old bushings, make sure that the incision on it is directed back. Very often, with the process of installing a new sleeve, it is connected with the fact that it does not fit on absolutely dry details. In such a situation, experienced motorists recommend using a warm soap solution.

12. By installing the sleeve, it must be pushed into a regular place, that is, to install the same as the old one was installed.

13. We dress on the sleeve of the clamp, it should well hold even without fastening elements.

14. We take the bolts, which is fastened to the clamp, and bent them first with your fingers, and then you are already touching them until you stop using a wrench. Make sure that all bolts are twisted evenly.

15. Very often it happens that the automotive stabilizer breaks the limiter. In this case, it is necessary to install the clamp from the metal, close by pressing it to the plastic ring. Otherwise, when twisting the fasteners, you risk damageing the clamp.

16. Using pliers, it is necessary to remove the head that you installed between the subframe and the car body. Back to plant a subframe bolts, the jack can be already or needed.

17. We install the estate in the old place, screw them with bolts. If in the process of dismantling you had to cut the nuts of the racks, then this detail Also have to be replaced with a new one.

18. All threaded parts must be processed using a special graphite lubricant. It is recommended to make it even before installing fasteners, which will prevent the likelihood of bolts.

19. Complete the wheel installation process.

As you were able to make sure, the replacement of the stabilizer gum can also be at home even without the help of a partner. The only thing you should not forget in no case are it safety. Do not forget that the weight of the car can apply you very serious injuries, so check the jack performance in advance and perform all operations with great care.

The car's suspension first meets all the irregularities on the way of the car, taking on all the blows from pits, bumps and other "pleasant" surprises, who are fed by our roads. Each suspension assembly has its own specific purpose, but in the aggregate, they all are intended to extinguish emerging percussion loads when moving the machine, as well as ensure proper handling and stability. vehicle When turning turns or the implementation of sharp maneuvers. Details such as the bushing of the transverse stability stabilizer often require replacement. Work can be done with your own hands.

A little about the work of the car suspension

It is not difficult to guess that the level of security and comfort on the road both for the driver and for passengers almost directly depends on the condition of the suspension, as well as how well it copes with its tasks.

Each component of the automatic suspension is aimed at a specific function. The levers together with the axles hold the wheel in the necessary plane, in parallel allowing it to rotate freely in two different planes (the moment of entering the turn).

Shock absorbers quenching the fluctuations arising during the movement, thereby ensuring the smoothness of the vehicle's movement. Springs at the same time are designed to ensure the stiffness of the suspension and the return of its components in the original state.

Main nodes and components of the front suspension of the car

But there is another important detail in the suspension, without which no one modern car Does not do. And this item is a stabilizer. It can easily be seen if the car drive into the lift or put on the observation pit. On the front bridge, among the springs, shock absorbers and other levers, the curved steel rod will be easily noticeable that one of its shoulders is fixed to the subframe, and the other - to the wheel of the wheel. Fastening the stabilizer is not hard and allow it to move to it along the axis in the same plane.

In the suspension design, the stabilizer appeared at the dawn of the automotive industry, when the speeds began to reach 20 km / h and higher. The introduction of this element in the suspension design made it possible to ensure the preservation of the vehicle stability during the passage of turns and the implementation of maneuvers.

Thus, the main task of the stabilizer during the movement is the distribution of the weight of the body of the car through all its wheels in the event of a roll. In particular, this concerns cases of sufficiently turns or a sudden change of the trajectory of movement.

Principle of operation of the transverse stability stabilizer

On a fairly spread today, the type of McFerson suspension stabilizer is a torsion lever working for a twist. This item is rigidly connected to the car body or subframe. The efforts arising in the suspension are transmitted to the stabilizer through additional levers, which by hinges are communicated with the suspension. This simple scheme allows you to prevent even a serious vehicle roll and even more than its overturning.

The rear axle is most often equipped with a stabilizer of this type in case of availability by car. full drive. If we talk about cars with rear wheel drive and a solid beam in the back bridge, then there the role of the stabilizer is given to the reactive barbecue also known as Panar's thrust.

Also, a number of Japanese SUVs in their time, in addition to Panar's thrust, were additionally equipped with another stabilizer, which in the form of a curved traction walked along the beam of the rear axle and reported with the power components of the body through small levers.

Stabilizer bushings. Signs of malfunction. Effects.

For the best damage to vibration and power influences going on the car body, the overwhelming majority of the suspension elements are connected by elastic elements. The same applies to the stabilizer. For its attachment, special sleeves (gum, pillows) are used from durable rubber or polyurethane. Over time, as the vehicle is used, the bushings can begin to collapse and noticeably lose in elasticity. The result of this becomes unsatisfactory work of the stabilizer \u003d. More serious defects can begin to begin to appear, which will eventually increase over time.

Device diagram Stabilizer and fastening elements

The first symptom that foreshadows the replacement of the sleeves will become a slight stall of the suspension. A similar knock can be observed at the "tired" shock absorbers. Only here in the case of the sleeves he can hear not only on the pits and ughab, but also when entering relatively cool turns. At the same time, the car is often felt excessive and sluggish. The appearance of the knock will be a consequence of the ariser in the connecting nodes of the stabilizer levers due to the wear sleeves.

If there are no measures on time, then the knocks in the future will only increase and will begin throughout the suspension work due to the increasing deformation and the destruction of the sleeves. A transverse bunch of body pitching and an excessive backlash booster can appear. Perhaps the "digging" of the car is not only in turns, but also in cases of braking or rebuilding. Automakers are mostly advised to change the stabilizer bushings every 30-40 thousand runs. However, in our conditions, it is still better to focus on wear sleeves. So suddenly the knock and light rattle in turns will be explicit signs Near the replacement of components.

As a popular method of checking the sleeves in health, it is proposed to move on the 2nd gear of the "lying policeman" by the geography. A deaf knock appeared in the pedal area - most likely, the bushings of Khan. You can also just climb everything for the car itself. The worn sleeve will "delight" the presence of cracks and sweetes characteristic of worn and cramped rubber. This cracks are sometimes called "daisies" sometimes called these cracks.

Stabilizer bushing and bracket for fastening

Also, the rubber bushings can simply cry and lose the necessary elasticity. If the bushings of the stabilizer fails to be considered, then just swing up and down and down and down the stabilizer itself. If the backlash, violets and knocks are felt at the bottom of the suspension, it means that the sleeves came into disrepair.

But for best result It is better, of course, to call on the flight, the observation pit or take advantage of the lift. From the tools you will need only a lomik or an assembly blade that you just stop the machine in the bottom and slightly "sharing" the stabilizer, in the places of its docking with the body. If a noticeable backlash was felt or a loss of elasticity was found, then it's time to think about replacing the sleeves.

Stabilizer bushing replacement process

A lot of time replacing the sleeves will not take. It is only necessary required toolplus a well-lit and convenient working area. It is unlikely that the average driver during the work will have access to a professional lift, so it is better to get a pair of jacks in advance and a special hard support

Work on the replacement of the sleeve is not a challenging or time-consuming task. For everything about everything can take an hour and a half or two. But in the prices of a service station, this service does not apply to the section expensive. So here everyone decides for himself for himself, to fumble in the garage for an hour or another or give the car to the masters and take care of more pressing.

Chassis in the car is such a part identified the elements of which directly ensure safety, so it should be perfect. One of the parts mentioned above is the stabilizer, which includes the so-called sleeve. It is an important structural part.

The sleeves exist two types: spherical and rubber. This article is presented for those whose car needs emergency technical assistance in the following areas:

Replacement rear sleeves.

Signs of worn out

The spherical sleeve for constructive parameters has a similarity with a ball support. Naturally, by analogy with the latter, it has the property to wear out and, accordingly, to come completely or unsuitable for the functioning condition. In addition, it should be noted that traveling with worn (even if functioning) elements of the chassis of the vehicle are extremely unsafe, and therefore, when the bushings of the cross-stability stabilizer bushings are necessary for its mandatory replacement. In the case of a further trip with an unusable, the driver will definitely be observed, because according to its individual sensations, the machine control will be significantly difficult.

In the main part of cases during the wear of the stabilizer bushings in the suspension region, certain noises are heard, and with an increase in speed, they are significantly enhanced, and, accordingly, during movement on road irregularities (pits and bumps), noises acquire a clear sound in the form of shocks. And if you are an attentive driver and did not miss the outside sound and temporary uncontrollability by the car, then we will consider the likely cause of such a situation. Thus, in order not to bring to such a condition of the suspension and sleeve, it is necessary to carry out planned technical inspections of all parts of the structure, and the bushing is subject to the most close diagnosis.

Simple process in three steps

If, according to the results of diagnostics or during the ride, you concluded that the sleeve came into disrepair, then you should not pull the repairs. It is necessary to immediately replace it. In this case, you do not even have to go to this end in the car service: replacing the rear stabilizer bushings as well as the front, is a completely simple process, and it can be done own forces, not even resorting to the help of outsiders. Removing the worn sleeves and replacing them with new ones takes place in three steps:

• Unscrew the bolts that fasten the clamp.
• To lead the stabilizer to the side. Such a position makes it possible to spend a thorough assessment of its condition and remember the features of the initial internal device To avoid assumes incorrect installation of elements after repair.
• In this situation, it is easy to remove the old sleeves from the stabilizer and install new ones.

Advantages of timely replacement

Replacing the stabilizer bushings cannot create completely no difficulty for the driver who has decided to repair its forces. All processes are fully accessible to manual execution, however, when there is no ability or a desire to exercise them in the absence of third-party help, it is recommended to contact the car service. Replacing bushings of the transverse stability stabilizer will allow the car owner to protect the racks from early wear.

Movement with new sleeves avoids difficulties during road, especially if the ride on poor-quality roads is said. And in general, the new sleeve is a comfortable and safe auto-trip.

List of necessary tools

You will certainly need to have the following set of tools:

• new sleeves;
• to drench the subframe bolt, a horn key of 24 is required;
• keys at 17 and 15;
• to drench the screws from the protection of the motor - the key to 10;
• for fastening bolts - key to 13;
• clamps made of metallic material by 20 - for clamping stabilizers, since old to be replaced;
• means for processing from scale and rust - WD 40;
• graphite lubrication;
• jack.

When planning the replacement of alone sleeves, it is recommended to leave the labels before removing the rod. This is necessary in order to immediately establish them exactly to the place where they were before, because the new sleeves on the surface of the rod move extremely difficult because of the elasticity.

In order to convenient installation, the surface inside the sleeve is recommended to be lubricated with a soap solution.

Step by step algorithm

Step by step algorithm of the process, in which the transverse stability stabilizer bushings are replaced:

The car needs to be installed on a hole for inspections or to another some kind of device to raise the front.

Overtime key (on 30) unscrew the nuts (2 pcs.) Fastening the hint of the sleeve and the ends of the stabilizer to the suspension levers. Prying the bar of the shovel of a small size (assembly), then remove the clip with the studs, carefully remove in the side direction.

Remove the rubber sleeve from the rod end. Similarly, to carry out the procedure and from the opposite side.

Remove the stabilizer by unscrewing the fastening of the brackets to body spars (2 nuts on both sides).

To replace the bushings, it is pushing the clip of the closure by means of a vice with the subsequent scrolling of the rod and tightening the rubber sleeve.

Wear new sleeves, and it is necessary to orient them on the applied tags.

The next setting is performed in the reverse order.

Replacing the front bushings of the stabilizer is made by a similar process as replacement rear.

Replacing the sleeve on the "Toyota"

If you plan to replace the bushing of the Toyota stabilizer, then first need to dismantle the wheels. For this purpose, weakening the feed wheels are weakened. Then you need to gradually raise in front of the car to firmly install on axial backups. Immediately you need to tighten hand brake And block the rear wheels in order to avoid the caring of the car. Separate the rack of the stabilizer. To this end, a universal wrench is used to prevent the rack, otherwise the ball hinge can rotate together with the nut. Later to remove the existing clips of the sleeves.

After disconnecting the stabilizer, the bushings themselves are extracted, exposed to external examination and if there are defects, are subject to replacement to new, which are first recommended to lubricate with vegetable oil on each side. Thus, it is much easier to assemble. You must pay attention to the cuts of the sleeves, they must be turned in the direction of the rear of the machine, and the label, respectively, should be outside. Next, the assembly is carried out in the reverse order.

Replacing the sleeve of the stabilizer "KIA"

Replacing the sleeves of the stabilizer "KIA" provides the following algorithm:

Raise the front of the car and dismantle the wheels. Find the steering shaft and apply a mark (for easy further installation to the original place), turn the fastening bolt.

Using the jack, lift the gearbox, unscrew the rear pillow and the subframe.

To simplify access to rear pillows Four bolts are twisted, with the help of which the subframe is attached.

Raise with a jack front of the subframe.

Fastening to remove and treat with oil solution to prevent the development of corrosion processes on the metal.

Screw them in your place only by four or five revolutions. It is made cross to ensure additional reliability and uniform tightening of the plane.

Loosen the jack to the level at which it is possible to reach the bushings bolts.

The sleeve on the right side can be easily unscrewed through the boom space, and on the left side - from the bottom.

Put the brackets. This procedure is carried out with a neat way, so as not to cause damage to the claw on the steering boot.

The process is repeated in the reverse order.

Features of the car "Kia LED" in the fact that the steering tree has a telescopic appearance, and therefore installing it occurs at the last moment.

Replacing the stabilizer bushings on "Nissan"

It should be noted that the replacement of the "Nissan" stabilizer sleeve is made in the same sequence as the same procedure on another car.

The procedure should be carried out in a timely manner, then more complex breakdowns can be avoided in the chassis.

However, as in other models of the car, the purpose of replacing the unusable structural elements of autosystems is to create safe driving conditions for the car.

Elements in the design of the car, which perform the function of providing stability while driving on the road, are called stabilizers. In order for the work to be silent, soft and smooth stabilizers are installed on the sleeve. Stabilizer bushings are relatively soft and elastic rubber parts.

What is the stabilizer bushing?

The sleeve is made by casting. Material used for manufacture: Rubber or polyurethane. The form of this part is almost the same for all models of cars. To harden the design of the sleeves, they make grooves and tides.

When to change the front transverse stabilizer bushings?

Conducting from time to time a visual examination of the stabilizer bushings, you can reveal their wear. If there are cracks on the sleeve, the form has changed (there is a large scope), then it is necessary to replace the stabilizative sleeves.

The resource of the bushings by the stabilizer for most brands and models of cars is 30 thousand km of mileage. If only one sleeve was worn out, it is recommended to change full setTo increase the interremmer period to replace the sleeves.

If visual inspection Mud is visible, it is better to clean them, thereby protect against accelerated wear.

Signs When you need to change the stabilizer bushings in the car:

• if the play of the wheels appeared when turning;
• if the steering wheel beats;
• if there are screenshots during inclons (roll) of the car;
• if the suspension vibrates (there is extraneous noises);
• if when moving straight the car pulls to the left or right;
• and, if at all there is instability during the ride.

These signs, first of all, signal the wear of the stabilizer bushings. The same features may also accompany the wear of silent blocks. Such problems and subsequent passage of work on the collapse are eliminated. Therefore, you should check and hold them repair work With your own or other people's hands on the replacement of stabilizative bushings. The backlash may appear with a strong disruption of wheel balancing. Violates balancing when you hit the pit, or, for example, when downloading to close the puncture.

How to change the front car stabilizer bushings

Although the brands and models of cars are a huge amount, but the principle and order of work on the replacement of the front sleeves, almost the same. Mainly different tools are distinguished.

The right order of work on the replacement of the front sleeves:

1. Install auto on the lift (if available) or set over the observation pit.
2. Loosen the fastening bolts of the front wheels.
3. Remove the wheels.
4. Then the nuts attaching the racks to the stabilizer should be unscrewed.
5. Disconnect.
6. Then the rear bracket bolts should be loosen and unscrew the front bolts.
7. Clear places for sets of bushings from dirt.
8. New sleeves S. inner It should be lubricated with soap solution or silicone lubricant.
9. Install bushings and make actions, reverse disassembly.

In some designs, cars will be more convenient to replace the front sleeves, if you first remove the protection of the engine crankcase.

The rear bushings of the stabilizer are changed by analogy with the front. Usually, the front is harder than the rear. When wearing the rear sleeves, creak appears.

Skin stabilizer sleeves

The appearance of a violep when moving the car, the driver and passengers are felt often. Especially begin to creak with severe frosts.

Consider the reasons for the appearance of the squeak of sleeves:

1. The bushings were made of low grade material.
2. In the cold, the tires is oak and loses elasticity because of what screensions appear.
3. The sleeve is very worn.
