Our roads in a deplorable state, their quality is not something that leaves much to be desired, it is simply absent, and at this time our cars are dirty, especially suspension. But even at the same time, most of the car owners do not pay due attention to it, and the maintenance process itself is complicated by a variety of different suspension nodes. Each of them bears its favor and the task, and at the same time have a direct relation to the safety of the car. Most of the details when wear out, give you to know about yourself with knocks, screenshots and noises. It did not exception and the reference bearing. The malfunction of this element can lead to a depository, and well, if they damage only the car itself, and will not cause an accident

Appointment of support bearing

We give an example on the VAZ 2110 models. In specifically, this model is an independent front suspension, with hydraulic racks. It then quenches the oscillations of the car arising when moving.

The stand in turn is fixed to the body itself in the upper part, and to the twilty fist in the lower. And provides a moving connection to a transient special element - a reference bearing. The name of this element itself opens its essence.

This device must withstand all radial and axial loads.

Types of support bearings

To date, several types of desires are used on VAZ brand cars:

• with built-in ring (internal or external);
• with a separated ring (installation inside);
• with a separated ring (installation outside);
• single separated bearing;
• single-separated type.

Causes of wear bearing

Most often, problems with the loosens arise through the hit in the midst of the dirt, and if we consider that our roads are more like off-road, then the process occurs an order of magnitude faster. An unpleasant moment associated with pollution occurs through the fact that there are no protective devices in it (bearings). Also, the cause of wear can be low-quality even new nodes, so do not be surprised if you just recently become details, and the flaw was worn out. Another reason can be a flare in the pit, after which the bearing can break. Options and factory marriage are not excluded, and through a sharp style of driving the owner, but do not forget about the natural wear of the part.

Signs of wear bearing

Symptoms are not so many more, they cannot be noticed and they all say that the driver is worth making a check of OP.

Signs are as follows:

• a knock is heard in the areas of the right or left side member. If you can skip this moment on a flat road past the ears, then the sound is characteristic of the sound and when turning;
• the machine does not immediately react to the turns of the steering wheel, thereby becoming less controlled.

How does the support bearing bearing

If you do not pay attention to all foreign sounds, but focus only on the natural sound of your car, then you do not miss the knock back of the bearing. There will be a feeling that somewhere something dangles. The sound is strong, but not ringing. On the video, the author tried to pass this knock.

How to check the support bearing (detail)

It is worth noting that it is necessary to check the bearing not only when the trouble has already grown, but in preventive purposes.

To check the bearing you will need an assistant who is able to dig up your car.

Check sequence:

• we put the muffled car to the handbrake, or rest the anti-tottack stops;
• open the hood cover;
• we find a glass;
• remove the lid already from the glass;
• we find a flaw, and put my palm on it;
• at this time, ask the assistant to dig a car;
• i hear screens - change the flaw, we do not hear - do not change.

Is it possible to repair the reference bearing

There are many opinions on the network on this issue. Some shout that it is no longer worth trying to try, but other car enthusiasts, on the contrary, they say that it is still worth trying. In fact, the bearing does not suffer by itself, but the damper tires, which settles and thereby gives the backlash. You are unlikely to buy a rubber band somewhere, it is sold only with OP, but to do as the author of the video from below, it is quite possible. This and money will save and the lifespan of the bearing will increase.
