Attention! The procedure applies to all models.
1. Raise the front of the car and place it on stands. Put the car on the parking brake. Remove the wheel.
2. Place a jack with a block of wood under the lower arm, in the area between the spring seat and the arm ball joint. Raise the jack slightly to compensate for the spring force on the upper arm.
Attention! Do not remove the jack until the work is completed.
3. Remove the air filter tube if necessary.
4. Disconnect the brake hose bracket from the upper suspension arm.
5. Disconnect from a rotary fist the top spherical support.
6. If the vehicle has been modified with a special tool, mark the position of the adjusting cams on the frame so that they can be set to their original position without disturbing the adjustment. Loosen the bolts and nuts of the upper arm axle (see photo). Remove the top arm.
7. Check up a condition of plugs of bolts of an axis. Replace them if necessary.
Attention! On some models, the bushings are welded in place and cannot be removed. If the bushings are worn, the lever should be replaced. On car parts, bushings are removed and installed on a hydraulic press in a car service.
8. Install the lever in the frame bracket, tighten the bolts and nuts. The bolt heads must face each other. Do not fully tighten nuts. Align the marks on the cams made when the lever was removed.
9. Attach the ball joint to the steering knuckle (see Section 4).
10. Attach the brake hose bracket to the upper arm.
11. Install the wheel and tighten the nuts, remove the car from the stands. Tighten the nuts to the specified torque.
12. Tighten nuts and bolts of an axis of the lever with the set moment.
13. Replace the air filter tube.
