Shock absorber
Disassembly and assembly
When disassembling and assembling the shock
absorber, never let the oil or grease touch the rubber parts.
Check
Use the proper cleanser to wash all the parts except the non-metal parts, and then dry them with compressed
air.
Make use of the compressed air to clean the non-metal parts.
Check the shock absorber for loose or crack ad oil leakage, replace if necessary.
Check the piston lever for crack, deform, or other damages, replace if necessary.
Check the rubber parts for wear, crack, damage or deform, replace if necessary.
Torsion bar spring
Disassembly
Make a location mark between the torsion bar and its
adjusting arm and the fixed arm.
Measure the length of the extruding part of the
adjusting bolt.

Disassemble the torsion bar adjusting arm from
behind and draw out the torsion bar.
Disassemble the torsion bar fixed arm.
Check
Check the torsion bar for any wear, deform, bend or any other damages.
Check the parts serrating spline for crack, wear, distort or other danages.
Assembly and adjustment
Along the tightening direction to adjust the adjusting nut of the adjusting arm. Never adjust the nut along the
nut loose direction.
1.Install the torsion bar fixed arm to the lower trans-
verse arm.
2.Wipe a layer of grease on the spline tooth of the tor-
sion bar.
3.Adjust the lower transverse arm position to assure
the alignment of both the torsion bar mark and its adjusting
arm mark.

4.Install the torsion bar spring
When install the torsion bar spring, please pay atten-
tion to the mark on the end of the spring. Don't install in
wrong direction.
5.Install the adjusting arm
Make sure the vehicle is in no load.
Make the same extending length of the fixed bolt and
the extending length before disassembling, and then
screw down.
Tighten or loose the adjusting nut to adjust the
vehicle gesture, and before tightening, there should be
loose first and then tighten up as required.
After adjusting the vehicle body gesture, tighten the
locking nut to the required torque.
Tightening torque: 108~127N.m
6. With the wheel on ground (vehicle no load), shock
the vehicle to eliminate the friction force of the suspension
parts.
7.Measure the vehicle gesture H
H=A-B mm (no load)
See "Maintenance data & explanation" for reference.
