Rear suspension VAZ 2110, diagnostics of faults and replacing with your own hands

If some of the elements of the rear suspension car VAZ 2110 is faulty, extraneous sounds can occur - knocks, screens, scratch, etc., donated from the bottom and rear of the car body.

Rear suspension VAZ 2110, device and principle

It should be noted that the rear suspension "dozens" is made simply, it can be said, even rude, but the suspension itself is quite reliable.
In order to recognize the character of breakdowns of the suspension and be able to eliminate them independently, it is necessary to at least theoretically familiarize themselves with the main nuances of the design of the rear suspension "Dozens":

• The role of the base of the suspension is performed by two longitudinal levers. They are fastened with each other with a solid connective beam.

• In the back of each lever on top there is a special eyelet on the bracket intended for the lower mounting of the shock absorber.

• To the outer part of the lever, the flange is welded. Its function is to protect brake mechanisms and wheeled axes.

• In front of the front, there are rubber-metal silent blocks. They are attached on the levers of the bushings, fixed by bolts and brackets to body spars.

• Special cups protrude as the lower support springs.

• From above, the spring rests in the intended support, welded to the body of the body.

• To the support with the nut and the support washer and the rubber pillow rigidly fastened the shock absorber.

• Hydraulic telescopic shock absorbers The lower part is connected to the rear of the longitudinal levers of the VAZ 2110 suspension. The shock absorber works on compression and squeezing.

Racks, springs, rubberometallic silent blocks - a weak place of rear suspension VAZ 2110. They fail in order. The service life of these elements is directly affected by the working conditions, the condition of the roads, as well as the car mileage.

Signs of the Malfunction of the rear suspension VAZ 2110

If during the movement of the car in its rear lower part arises outside sounds, most likely, some of the elements of the rear suspension occupy. Let's consider the main "symptoms" of wear or failure of the main suspension elements.

• Signs of failure of the sleeve - a small building of the car from straight movement, noise and knock on ughab and irregularities of the road.

• Signs of buffer malfunction - noise and knock at the movement of the car - the consequence of the "breakdown" of the suspension as a result of damage or the destruction of the compression buffer.

• Signs of the spring fault - extraneous noise and knocks when moving the car, caring auto from straight movement, "trials" of the rear suspension.

• Signs of the upper fastener of the rack - noise and knocks when driving a car. The most obvious feature of the damage to the shock absorber is the drums from under its elements.

As can be seen, most of the "symptoms" breakdowns of different suspension elements are very similar, and are expressed in various kinds of extraneous sounds, less often - in difficulty driving a car. A more detailed diagnosis of rear suspension faults is possible only to a hundred or independently when disassembling the suspension.

In general, to determine the overall condition of the VAZ 2110's rear suspension, sufficiently press the back of the car and let go sharply and see how long the body will be sinking. If the racks and suspension are generally better, the car swings 1-2 times and calm down. When the routing continues, it is a reason to carefully examine all the elements of the suspension. Especially shock absorbers and places of their attachment.

Checking the main elements of the rear suspension VAZ 2110

If the shock absorber broke, the best thing to be done is to replace it. Of course, almost all shock absorbers can be repaired, but in terms of time, effort and funds, the game is definitely not worth the candle. In addition, to correctly repair the shock absorber, it is necessary to have a special tool corresponding to experience and skills. It is much easier and faster to replace it, especially since today all the necessary tools, fixtures, consumables can be bought without much difficulty.

Consider several examples of checking the main components of the rear suspension VAZ 2110.

  • Top of fasteners racks. Located in the car trunk. For visual inspection, the fastener point must be pulled out the shelf and remove the rubber plugs.
  • Rubber bushings. For their full inspection, the car will have to raise the lift, use the pit or lift. Rubberometallic elements should not have cracks, should not be written around. For an additional check of the state of the bushings, they are mounted or a small lombing.

  • Buffer. With its damage or destroy, a knock arises. In motion, it is well audible, especially if the rear axle is loaded. However, to accurately make sure the presence of malfunctions, the car needs to be driven into a hole or lift.
  • Springs. The broken spring is also very often caused by an extraneous noise, and can also cause the accident, since when moving the car can abruptly lead to the side. If the spring bursts, a sharp, unusual sound occurs, it does not appear regularly.

If one shock absorber or spring failed, it is necessary to replace both elements - with the right and left side, even if one of them is fully working.

Dismantling rear suspension VAZ 2110

Disassembly of the rear suspension VAZ 2110 is carried out in order to replace or repair individual elements of the system. Below we give step-by-step instructions, in which it consider the process of disassembling the node in detail.

• First of all, it is necessary to weaken the shock absorbers fixing nuts. They are in the trunk. Relaxing the nut, you need to simultaneously hold the rod so that it does not check.

• With the help of a jack, lift the back of the body, and remove the wheels.

• Next, you need to remove the "handbrack" cables. It is better to make it comprehensively - remove the brake drums, disconnect the tips of the cables from the pads, disconnect the shell from the brake shield. After that, you can free fastening to the body and pendant levers.

• The next step is to disconnect the hoses and the rear brake pressure regulator.

• The car gently lowered the prepared stands for the brackets of the suspension levers.

• Release the top attachments of shock absorbers to the car body.

• If there is such a need, the springs are removed, the jackhaft buffer, racks.

• Rear suspension beam can be released after the bolts connecting the beam with spars are unscrew.

• To replace or repair the brake shield and hubs, you need to weaken and remove the fastening bolts, after which the items can be completely removed and carry out any necessary actions with them.

Assembly of the rear suspension VAZ 2110, advice pro

The assembly of the rear suspension VAZ 2110 is made in the reverse order, there is nothing complicated here, however, several important nuances will have to be taken into account:

• When assembling, the lower end of the spring must necessarily be restarted into the protrusion of the cup.

• When replacing the springs to new, it is necessary to choose the details of the same stiffness. The rigidity of the spring is determined by the color that the VAZ 2110 pendant is labeled.

• The shock absorbers fastening bolts are finally tightened only after the car is lowered to the ground - the weight of the car should affect the suspension.

Finally, I would like to note that the image of the rear suspension for the VAZ 2110 is a rigid dependent design. On modern cars, in most cases a multi-dimensional independent suspension is installed.

Currently, several domestic companies produce kits for tuning "dozen" suspension by installing a back of an independent design equipped with transverse stability stabilizers. All products are produced based on German technologies. A huge plus of this kind of tuning is that all elements are installed in regular mounts. In the future, you can, without any problems, regulate the disorder, the stiffness of the stabilizers, etc.

An independent suspension significantly increases comfort when driving, facilitates driving a car, reduces wheels of wheels. Thanks to this, you can install more rigid racks.
