What's the role suspension damper? Suspension damper is a vital element responsible for this adhesion of wheels to the pavement. Its task is in order to suppress fluctuations suspension with uneven roads and blocking the bouncing of wheels and loss of contact with the ground. Shock absorber as all of operating in the car, wears out, and occasionally needs for being replaced. How does the swap MacPherson strut front shock absorber? Depending on the design of the vehicle shock absorber can be integrated with spring suspension and to the carrier element. In this case, the assembly is named a shock absorber struts. Changing the shock absorber would be to lift the car, removing the wheels, removing the shock absorber mounting on the switch, and then removing this MacPherson strut upper increasing. The whole column is removed and disassembled outside with a bench. The spring is compressed inside the compressor to facilitate the removal. Removable is upper strut mount which has a pillow and bearing allows turning top wheels. A new shock is assumed spring, the upper bearing and pillow. After releasing the compressed position of the spring with a entire column is mounted the government financial aid the car. What should I look at? For all replacement of the shock absorber must purchase a new cover his rods and buffer. It is also wise to replace the the surface of the pillow and the bearing to avoid rapid breakdown of these elements and the need to disassemble MacPherson strut yet again. After replacing the shock absorbers must also check suspension geometry to make certain that the car will behave on the highway properly and will definitely not occurred accelerated tire put on. Shock absorbers are mentioned in pairs using one axis. It is difficult to determine the viability of the factor, which is a shock absorber, as it depends on how the car is applied. However, you can roughly say how the shock absorbers lose their properties as soon as the mileage of about 100, 000 km. Their efficiency can become tested for diagnostic path, for example, vehicle inspection stations.
