The general information, recommendations and security measures

Forward suspension bracket of cars Saab 9-5 independent, with racks the Poppy-fersona, cross-section levers and the stabilizer of cross-section stability. Levers and the stabilizer fasten to a forward stretcher. Naves rotate in the bearings established in rotary fists. On early models ступичные it is possible to replace bearings separately, and on late models the nave and its bearing represent not folding block fixed on a rotary fist by bolts.

Back suspension bracket independent, with racks, longitudinal levers, the bottom both top cross-section draughts and the stabilizer of cross-section stability. Cross-section draughts and the stabilizer fasten to a back stretcher. Naves of back wheels with двухрядными bearings represent not folding knot and fasten to longitudinal levers hairpins and nuts.

Steering реечное, with the hydraulic booster (ГУР). Pump GUR is resulted from a cranked shaft by a belt of a drive of auxiliary units. The steering column developing that increases safety of the driver at failure. Liquid ГУР moves the pump to the control valve which, depending on a direction of rotation of a steering wheel, directs a liquid on one of the parties of the executive cylinder. In the cylinder the liquid operates on the piston, giving additional effort to the steering mechanism.

At performance of repair or service of components of a suspension bracket and a steering often there are problems with отворачиванием "the become attached" bolts and nuts. Located under the bottom of the car fixture elements constantly are exposed to external influences both in due course are exposed to corrosion and partially collapse. Brute force application at release such "become attached" fixture is interfaced to risk of its damage. To begin with moisten not giving in отворачиванию an element with a small amount of a special getting liquid (type WD40), having allowed it it is good to impregnate a rust layer. A wire brush remove external adjournment from accessible sites of carving surfaces. Sometimes sharp blow by a hammer on a nut through выколотку helps to destroy a rust filling backlashes between coils of a carving joint, - try not to admit carving damage as a result соскакивания выколотки. Use at отворачивании "the become attached" fixture long воротка allows to increase considerably a put twisting moment, however it is necessary to remember that application of extension pieces complete with drives of ratchet type is interfaced to risk of failure of the returnable mechanism, and also with possibility of reception of a trauma. Damaged in process release the fixture is subject to replacement without fail.

As the majority of procedures described in the present Chapter is made on the car lifted over the earth, it is necessary to take care beforehand of variants of its reliable fixing in the lifted position, – prepare strong props. For поддомкрачивания the car use hydraulic jacks подкатного type, – remember that the onboard jack entering into a standard complete set is intended only for time поддомкрачивания the car at replacement of the failed wheel. The hydraulic jack can be used also for posting of some components of a suspension bracket at performance of this or that procedure.

Work under the car kept in lifted position only by means of jacks is not supposed!
