REAR COIL SPRING(for Torsion Beam Type Suspension) INSTALLATION

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

Tech Tips


  • Use the same procedure for the RH side and LH side.

  • The procedure listed below is for the LH side.

PROCEDURE


  1. INSTALL REAR UPPER COIL SPRING INSULATOR


    1. A00Y9XXC04
      *a 10 mm or less

      Install the rear upper coil spring insulator to the rear coil spring.

      Note

      Install the rear upper coil spring insulator so that the dimension between the stopper and upper end of the rear coil spring is 10 mm (0.394 in.) or less.

  2. INSTALL REAR LOWER COIL SPRING INSULATOR


    1. Install the rear lower coil spring insulator to the rear axle beam assembly.

  3. INSTALL REAR COIL SPRING


    1. Support the spring seat of the rear axle beam assembly using 2 jacks and 2 wooden blocks.

    2. Remove the 2 bolts while holding the 2 nuts and separate the rear axle beam assembly from the rear shock absorber assemblies LH and RH.

      Note

      Because the nuts have their own stoppers, do not turn the nuts. Loosen the bolts with the nuts secured.

    3. Slowly lower the rear axle beam assembly using 2 jacks and 2 wooden blocks.

    4. A00Y81PC01
      *a Identification Mark
      *b 30° or less

      Set the rear coil spring to the rear axle beam assembly.

      Note

      Set the rear coil spring so that the identification marks are positioned as shown in the illustration.

    5. Slowly jack up the rear axle beam assembly using 2 jacks and 2 wooden blocks, and temporarily install the rear axle beam assembly and rear coil spring with the 2 bolts and 2 nuts.

      Note

      Because the nuts have their own stoppers, do not turn the nuts. Tighten the bolts with the nuts secured.

      Tech Tips

      Insert the bolt with the threaded end facing the outside of the vehicle.
