Suspension stabilization system is needed in any car. In passenger transport, this role is played by the transverse stability stabilizer. His presence on the front suspension is required. It is difficult to remember the vehicle brand where the stabilizer was not installed. The stabilizer racks provide compounds of the stabilizer ends with the main element of the suspension, for example, with a swivel fist. The stabilization of the body is necessary to tie the suspension and body into one to improve the dynamic characteristics and safety of the car. If the racks were generally absent on the car, it would have happened that the suspension of the vehicle lives his life, and his body. In this case, the car during acceleration will rigidly roll back, when braking - ahead, and during turn - in the side.

Racks of the transverse stability stabilizer, why they come into disrepair

As a result of a constant multidirectional load, which is exacerbated by poor road quality, racks often fail.

There are characteristic symptoms in the behavior of the car, for which you can diagnose the fault of the stabilizer racks:

• The vehicle is unstable when driving, especially on sharp turns.
• In the context of the passage of uneven road sections in the suspension there is a knock.
• When turning the steering wheel, the car shakes.
• If you release the steering wheel, the car takes to the side.

Stabilizer racks can be unusable for several reasons. They are considered consumables to be changed after a certain time period - approximately 20 thousand kilometers of run. These elements carry high loads and are subjected to rapid natural wear. Standards of the stabilizer fail because of the poor condition of the roads, when hitting and as a result of an obstacle.

What is the danger of car operation with non-working racks

If the racks of the stabilizer are faulty, it leads to a deterioration in the steering properties, the machine becomes harder to manage, which is a danger to the life of the motorist and passengers. Therefore, when the racks malfunction must immediately replace them.

How to buy high-quality spare parts and details, to pay attention

When choosing the stabilizer racks, it is desirable to give preference to high-quality spare parts from the well-known manufacturer. According to the reviews of the car owners, Ruville (Germany), Lemforder (Germany) and Sidem (Belgium) and Sidem (Belgium) are proven - the stabilizer racks of these firms are really characterized by good quality. Often they can be found in original packaging, which is an important factor.

From the average price category, the following racks are worthy: CTR (Korea), Hanse (Russia), Optimal (Germany), 555 (Japan), Qten (Japan), TRW (Germany) - Perhaps they are the best offer at the moment by the price ratio /quality.

Choosing a workplace

It's easy to change the racks. It is better to have an overpass or pit in stock to dismantle the element in the unloaded state of the stabilizer. However, some experienced masters make them a replacement with the help of an ordinary jack. In this case, it is advisable to use two lifts so that on both sides, hang the wheels and unload the stabilizer.

Tools, fixtures, consumables

For self-substitution, it will take such a set of materials and tools:

• New racks.
• Purifier (suggests spray).
• Rag.
• Set of wrenches.
  
• Stack of bricks or boards, allowing to squeeze the vehicle.
• Pipe key.
• Lift (better two).

Why is it better to change the stabilizer racks along with shock absorbers

As you know, if everything is fine with the shock absorbers, the vehicle does not jump on the pits and bumps. The absence of good shock absorbers not only affects controllability, but also increases tire wear, as well as other travel parts.

How to determine the malfunction of shock absorbers and racks

One of the methods for checking the shock absorbers - strong pressing alternately for every corner of your car. If the car continues to bounce when you let go, it's time to change the shock absorbers. Nevertheless, such a check may require a lot of strength and on many pickles or SUVs will not be able to diagnose shock absorbers in this way.

To determine the breakdown of the stabilizer racks, release the space in the wheel niche through the total rotation of the wheel pair. Next, take your hand for the stabilizer rack and try to steal it from side to side. When the knock and the backup appears, it is necessary to replace the part.

Why shock absorbers necessarily change pairs

Spare parts manufacturers for cars always warn their buyers that shock absorbers need to be changed pair. When replacing only one shock absorber, there is no warranty that the car will serve it regularly at least some time. An explanation of such a phenomenon is quite simple - replacing only one shock absorber will lead to the formation of a specific roll, which will create a high load on the rack. That is why the replacement of the front, as well as the rear shock absorbers should be a steam room.

How to remove the old rack, step by step

1. First of all, we hang the ass of the car and dismantle the wheels.
2. We carry out a thorough inspection of the rear suspension, where it is clearly seen that it is attached to the shock absorber, and the other to the stabilizer.
3. These fasteners need to be cleaned with a rag, after which they treat the spray-cleaner having a high penetrating ability.
4. Arming the keys required to dismantle.
5. Insert the lever insert insert the hex key and thus hold the semi-axle from turning. Together with this, unscrew the nut fixing the stabilizer rack.
6. Remove the rack from the fastener.

How to install a new rack

1. Before installing, clean the place of attachment from dirt.
2. Install the new stabilizer rack.
3. Tighten the nut, again holding the end of the semi-axes with a hex key from turning.
4. It is very important to spin nuts well.
5. After that, the wheels in place and release the car.
6. After several kilometers of driving, it is advisable to put the vehicle to the pit again and pull the nuts.

How to remove old rear rack shock absorbers and install new

Together with the shock absorbers, it is recommended to buy rubber covers in advance, which are well protected from dust, as well as rubber supports, self-locking fixation nuts, support bearings and stubborn cups. To pay attention is necessary on the springs, which in case of need need to be replaced.

• Replacing the rear racks from the trunk.
• First dismantle the wheels on the raised machine and remove the brake hoses.
• It is recommended not to disconnect the hoses from the calipers in order not to subsequent air pumping from the brake system. But if the level of brake fluid fell, the operation can be combined and combined.
• Attaching depreciation racks are first dismantled from above. Then we spin all locking shock absorber attachments from below.
• Armed with a special puller and squeeze the spring, but do not overdo it. If you press too much, the spring can be squeeed.
• We change the defective shock absorber and install everything in the reverse order.

How to replace the front shock absorber racks, step by step

The front racks of shock absorbers are changing the same:

1. First, put the car on the hand-made brake and install simple bricks under the wheels or anti-type shoes.
2. Then take the key key to 21 and the hex key on 6. Holding the hexagon scrolling, dismantle the fastening nut of the rack.
3. Then we remove the stubborn puck, called the cup
4. Next, using a cape key to 27 weakening the rod nut into several revolutions. It is recommended to weaken it only by one and a half turn.
   
5. At both sides, we raise the front and install metal supports.
6. Bolts and nuts proceed from spray.
7. We unscrew the upper caliper mounting bolt, and then weaken the bottom.
8. After that, it is necessary to take the caliper to the side.
9. With the help of a cape key to 18, it is necessary to weaken the bottom nuts, on the other hand, holding the fastener bolt onto the wrench.
10. Lightly tapping with a hammer, pull out the bolts. Thus, carefully pull the front desk of the car.

Replacing the pillar supports are made in cases where the driver notices the quiet knuckles when moving at low speed. In mandatory, free from the brake hoses from the bracket. Also in the process of work it is necessary to apply the steering tip puller. Before installing a new support, it is necessary to pour the rack and hold all the time in a vertical position until it is mounted in place.

Tips Prof.

As you can see, there is nothing complicated in replacing the racks. However, it is worth noting that difficulties may arise when unscrewing nuts. More about replacing stabilizer racks you can learn from the following video.
