THE GENERAL DATA

Forward suspension bracket independent, type Mac Pherson. Consists of two racks of the suspension bracket, two bottom cross-section levers and the cross-section stabilizer which ends also carry out a role of jet levers. Each rack contains a screw spring, coaxial with the telescopic shock-absorber.

The convergence is a distance between a forward and back part of forward wheels. This corner usually positive as from round the corner an inclination of a wheel (disorder) and resistance качению wheels aspire to be developed outside.

The angle of slope of a wheel and longitudinal angle of slope of an axis of turn reduce transfer of blows and vibration from roughnesses of road by a steering. The wheel angle of slope is a corner on which the wheel deviates a vertical plane. The longitudinal angle of slope of an axis of turn is a corner on which the rack of a forward suspension bracket is inclined that essential impact at movement on a straight line makes.

Shock-absorbers

Shock-absorbers hydraulic telescopic bilateral action also make the bottom part of racks of a suspension bracket.

Mark: Motorcraft.

The stabilizer

The cross-section stabilizer is connected in an average part to a body by means of two plugs. Stabilizer shoulders are connected to the bottom cross-section levers of a suspension bracket with the help самоконтрящихся nuts.

Diameter of the lever of the stabilizer: 27 mm.

Naves of forward wheels

Each nave is located on two conic bearings established with a tightness.
